Forgot to write about the jazz pianist. I met him at the hotel lobby. He was playing some fantastic improv (this is what I admire about jazz musicians, I can never play improv), I sat and listened, when he finished I clapped. He came to speak to me and asked if I have something I want to hear, I asked if he can play any Bossa Nova, so he played Girl from Ipanema for me.

His dad lives in Mykonos, Greece, he used to live in Canada but now mainly in China. He also has a Swiss PR but now couldn’t go to the UK after Brexit. I was shocked, I thought it only puts time limitations. Didn’t realise they need visas. I shared some music with him and he shared some music with me. I was also sharing music with J recently. It’s good to reconnect.
