What does California mean to you?
I always dreamed of coming here. Sometimes it’s hard to be here, with the wildfires every year, and it seems inevitable that climate disasters are going to become more common. But I want to be here as long as I can, because it still seems like a dream. I always feel like it’s the American dream – growing up, I read the Beats and totally bought into the Californiafantasy.Ithasn’t disappointed me.
