Default California

I'm sure there's lots of people scattered throughout Cali, and due to just numbers we're going to find people close to each other and I think it would be a great way to meet like-minded people.

How about we post what area we're from, and if we're willing to meet others or participate in a local group.

So, I'm Andrew and I live in Bakersfield, and I am willing to meet other fun, conscious, and purpose-driven people throughout all of California.

I'm originally from Fremont, CA but currently live in La Jolla to go to school at UC San Diego. If you have no idea where Fremont is, just think south of Oakland or east of San Francisco.

I'm willing to participate in a local group.

Looking forward to meeting some growth oriented people.

I am also a native Californian. However, I moved out the area for a couple years to help raise my younger cousins. However, I am in CA often, and I will be moving back there soon. I will probably move back to Northern CA, probably san Jose or that area.

So where were all these "fun, conscious, and purpose-driven people throughout all of California" people BEFORE I moved away???

Born in Fremont, CA, too. Now I live in a place I've dubbed Nowhere, Wisconsin:

Anyone here live in Nowhere Wisconsin?

Andreas, actually I was born in San Francisco but raised in Fremont.

Did you go to school in Fremont? If so, which one? I went to Mission San Jose High.

Well I only lived my first 4 years of life in Fremont, and then later I came back. My childhood is a little complicated.

But Fremont will always have a warm place in my heart.

Nah, I like it here too much. But if you bring death and disease back with you, then I might have to run away.

Mountain View.

Perhaps we should split this into Norcal and Socal? Nothing against socal... it's just a big state.

Sunnyvale/Mountain View area. I think that's at least three, right? We're getting close to enough people to move on this?

We probably should split to north and south. South might as well be a different state, California is so darn big.
