Summer is upon us. As I sit here at 8pm in my 35°C apartment, watching my new friend, the gecko, crawl slowly towards the colony of daddy long-legs above my desk, I contemplate my next move. Should I go outside draped in my PeaceCorps issued mosquito net and risk their attack? Should I cook dinner and risk melting onto the floor? Nope. My best option will be to continue this afternoon’s event – sitting on my cooler tile floor reading.
