Newbie from Bay area - Northern California

Hello Everyone,

My name is Susan Gong. I am a newbie in REI. I grow up in China and came to California bay area 7 years ago. I recently discovered BP and truly like it. I have been reading posts and listening to the podcasts. I am so impressed by how people help each other and treat each other with sincerity and respect. It's blessing to be one member of this awesome group.

English is my second language. I am also a little shy. But I do wish to make more friends on BP and learn more from you. My short term goal is to rehab and hold a rental property that is not far away (within 1.5 hours driving) from south bay.

Thanks all!
