Winning

This is weird but... I appear to have won that LJ hashmob competition?! I honestly wasn't even trying. Just wanted to participate as I thought it would be fun... and I love a LJ questionnaire!

I've had a couple of friends from the UK visiting these past few weeks and I spent 5 days with them in São Paulo, which has been incredibly fun and re-energising. I'll post a proper update soon.

Summers in London's East End

A young woman on the sidewalk collecting wild berries that grew next to the travellers’ compound.

A young Polish man with construction site scars on his hands and arms.

A man in his thirties riding with exertion his bike over the bridge that crosses the A12 from Hackney Wick to Victoria Park, sunburns down his calves.

Victoria Park in late afternoons, filled with shirtless men kicking a ball, women lying on the grass, couples too close together in the shade.

An open balcony door, wind stirring the leaves but not cooling anything.
