oakland and liberation

ABOUT ME

i love where i live... in oakland, with the best light in the world and all kinds of love and craziness. i teach poetry, and write, poetry and a novel. I get along well with teenagers cause they keep it real and feel things hella deeply. and i am so glad i'm a full-fledged adult.
i like traveling cuz it makes me notice the world.

PHILOSOPHY

its in my novel. i guess if i had to summarize: its all connected.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
