CURRENT MISSION

To Save all Beings (what does that mean?)

ABOUT ME

We live in beautiful Oakland CA. There are about 150 languages spoken here, which makes it (along with Long Beach, CA) the most diverse city in the United States. I (doug) work with babies and am going to school studying child development and horticulture. Aina is a massage therapist, artist, and wonderful cook (I really like her...) Anyway don't listen to anyone who hates on Oakland. Oaktown is the best.
