Hear Here: A relationship coach finds love

(Don't see an audio player above? Try reloading your browser window.)

As a relationship coach, Oakland resident Cristina Robinson has some strong philosophies on dating and marriage. But despite all the wisdom she's given to other women, she says, "I thought there was no man for me in San Francisco." In this piece from Season 1 of Hear Here, however, she tells us the unexpected way she met her mate.

What’s a place in your neighborhood that means something to you – and why? Our Hear Here community storytelling project wants to know the answer. If you’ve got a story of a significant place, visit the Participate page at www.hearkere.kalw.org and tell it to us! You can also find the project on Facebook and follow it on Twitter at @hearhereradio.

Hear Here is part of a national initiative of AIR, the Association of Independents in Radio, Inc designed to bring new journalistic and technical ingenuity to extending public media service to more Americans. From Chinese restaurants in Boston, to shuttered factories in Dayton, to the oil fields of North Dakota, to Bay Area startups, the ten Localore production teams are working with their public station incubators to uncover ground-up stories of America in transition. Follow their development, and learn more at Localore.net.
