1. Hey, Cleita! We used to live at Maple & 16th, across the street
from Santa Monica College. But, we've been back in San Francisco for about three years now.

My mom's family is from El Salvador and Spanish was my first language. I went to school through grad school in the Bay Area. Doug's father was an immigrant from Brazil (who just whomped Japan, btw, lol) and they lived there for a while. He doesn't speak Spanish or Portuguese but can read some of both and can understand some of each.

I have about forty two Castaneda cousins in this area and most of them are either in media or in education or the arts or all three.

I've been to El Salvador which I hated, Doug has been to Brazil which he loved. We both go to Mexico whenever we can and would like to go there when we die.

:hi:
