Santeria


Hamba uzo bona(go and you will see)in Zulu...

 I am travelling and I am seeing as I go along.
First time out of my country and  I have encountered lots of beautiful souls.

My encounter with Cubans has been so wonderful I was invited to a ceremony Santería, also known as Regla de Ocha, La Regla Lucumí or Lukumi, is a syncretic religion of West African and Caribbean origin influenced by Roman Catholic Christianity. Its liturgical language, a dialect of Yoruba, is also known as Lucumí.


love for the earth sun moon and all life,to never forget where you come from,to remember youre not alone.

One thing about being here in the States specifically California, it is the integration of the worlds masses the ability to co exist and share in the different cultures and ways of life,from clothing to different kinds of food people here have managed to co exist and that's just tooo wonderful for me to witness and experience,proof that the world can get along.

You dont have to loose yourself in the big world or global community,we can keep our identity but still get along...umuntu ungu muntu nga bantu(you are who you are because of people)

So thank you to the beautiful Cuban community of East Oakland for confirming my travels and beliefs in co existence..
