100 degrees and it’s raining in the kitchen

Life’s like that in the Balkans, the Summer School I run each year in Kosovo is all smiling faces and bad plumbing.

We arrived in temperatures that are both unfamiliar and uncomfortable for those of us residing in the maritime climes of northern England. We sweltered for a few days, then it went dark and rain rained like rain hadn’t rained before. It rained all afternoon and the flat roof above the kitchen slowly filled with water.

The state of the hostel being what it is, the roof leaked and it proceeded to rain in the kitchen for the next four days. As I say, life's like that in the Balkans
