flooded with generosity

Upon landing at Oakland, I was already blessed with generosity, as a friend/mentor/inspiration of mine, Nipun, (and that’s by no means an exhaustive list) shot out some emails and had someone pick me up from the airport after midnight. I initially had plans of staying with a friend in San Francisco, but Aumatma – the selfless girl she is – offered another option: staying in Berkeley with a friend of hers and Nipun, Chris, which would be walking distance from where I’d be working every day (as opposed to driving 45-60 minutes every morning from SF to Berkeley [oh, did I mention that Nipun also was gracious enough to arrange for me to have a car to use during my time here? The generosity is endless]).

Chris was beyond cool with me making a home for myself in their pillow pit, which was super comfy for me to crash in before the next day of activity.
