Rooftop

My friend Aaron is in Tanzania, visiting from the US, and he invited me up to the swimming pool on the rooftop of his swanky apartment block. Nice to appreciate Dar es Salaam from a different perspective, very nice to plunge into the water, but less nice to turn the backs of my legs red due to sloppy use of sun cream.

Another friend, who shall remain nameless because I think they were downloaded somewhat illicitly, sent me episodes of the Great British Bake Off. Absolute perfection to have an evening marathon watching session. A show that never fails to be both feel good and mouth-watering.

In other news, I’ve reached the epilogue section of War and Peace. Crawling to the finish line.
