The stairwell is great. I imagine the top rooftop is too. I’d love to sit up there, reading a book, occasionally looking out below 😊 Or set up an outdoor power point, and you could do writing there on warmer days. (I installed an outdoor power point in Dunedin for my balcony – it was a great!)

No air con in my rooms there, but ceiling fans help 😊

I had a grant early on, too. There’s a lot I wish were different to better support people onto a career.
