Here, I have running water, electricity from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m., a clean room with a fridge, small balcony, and television with 3 channels: a British one showing Premiership football matches, CNN’s international feed, and SLBS, the national broadcaster that transmits conferences and workshops from a single camera angle. It is aiming to be like the CBC, but watching it is more of a CPAC experience.
I also have access to a large patio with a distant view of the ocean. Just opposite the road is a primary school, which means lots of adorable kids around when I leave in the morning, and peace and quiet when I return in the evening.
I will not miss the six barking dogs inside the compound at the previous place. Instead, I now listen to the enchanting voice of Madame Posseh chatting with the staff in Krio. She sounds eerily like Nina Simone. A strong yet kind presence, she makes the house a safe, comfortable, and friendly haven. Feeling Good indeed!
