One of things I love about summer is swimming in the ocean and then letting the salt water dry on my skin. In fact, with a daily swim I don’t bother with any other form of washing – at times for days, if not weeks on end. I’m like a salt shaker and what’s left of my hair gets bleached. But the best part is sniffing my armpits. Why? They smell like the deep blue sea.

The sea is in our family’s genes…

These days it’s in my ears.

Yes yes yes absolutely!!!! Incidentally I escaped and now have a cottage on the beach in Bay View, north of Napier. Paradise. Fish is back in the water. I reckon my hair grows six inches over summer – it thrives on the unwashed salt.

Sounds perfect … and probably a little cooler than here.
