Ask HN: Engineer working with rLoop needs place to crash in Bay area

Amir, a Mechanical Engineer from India has run out of the little money his parents could put up(dad has a truck he rents around), and hence accommodation in the bay area. He is working with the rLoop team competing for Musk's Hyperloop One Global challenge. They also won the Hyperloop pod competition in [January this year](http://motherboard.vice.com/read/meet-the-redditors-who-designed-a-hyperloop-pod).

He comes from a very average college as me from India, and is in the midst of launching his career as a worthy mechanical engineer. Opportunities like these are very rare in India. His coming back to India right now will put him back into a crappy job. Do you know folks who could relay-host him for a week or two?

Their garage is right next to Facebook HQ. He can't stay there because it is an incubated space. I've a friend who works in Sacramento but that's two hours, one way. Amir has excellent work ethics. Can also help the folks he lives with a little household things, but has 14 hour workdays without weekends.

His Facebook profile is here, in case you want to put a face to the name: https://www.facebook.com/whiplash.01

Know someone who can help?
