I’m sitting right now with the air conditioner on, an unusual circumstance as normally I only use the AC when we have guests. I’ve been feeling hot all day – early menopause? who knows – and then for lunch found that my favourite stall had returned after a month’s break. They sell a prawn noodle soup which is more wholesome feeling than some other lunch foods, but it does leave one sweating. What is it about hot liquids? Or would I feel the same way if I ate the same amount of rice at the same temperature?
We have made our plans for the winter: Sumba in Indonesia. I hope we are able to attend a festival or two, I was very sad to miss them when we went to Flores.
