Hannah, Mansoor & Selim

Mansoor and Hannah

 
Mansoor and I first learned about cohousing five years ago when we married and moved from Oakland/Berkeley to Los Angeles. What a great idea - we thought - to have friends as neighbors, to share meals and materials and labor, sharing in the life changes that come with the passage of time. Five years, lots of research, and one attempt to start a small intentional community in Los Angeles later, we learned of KV and realized it might help our cohousing dreams come true. It's always fun and exciting to see dreams become reality. We love to hike, work in the kitchen, listen to music, read, and spend time together.
About us : Hannah loves foods and cooking and learning about cultures from many parts of the globe. She's politically savvy and dedicated to issues of social justice. The longest she's ever been outside of the state of California was our 7-month trip to India. Mansoor considers himself a sort of cultural mutt... As a Texan-Californian with roots in India, he sympathizes with different and contradictory perspectives. He's focused nowadays on love towards family and friends, living simply and more sustainably, and time outdoors. We met in a Spanish conversation class and hope to live a long, multi-lingual life together.
