Took a hike. Here's @bradtorchia hard at work shooting our @airbnbexperiences guide Amber and the very excitable Carly. @atlas.etihad

This cabin was originally built during the southern Californian Gold Rush in the late 1800s. It was moved to its current location just outside Big Bear in 1915 by a Swiss woman named Miss Olsen, who lived here alone until, incredibly, 1988. She relied on an outhouse and spongebaths. This week it's my house. Thankfully they've put an indoor toilet in. @airbnb @atlas.etihad

Turned 33 today. Two years ago I visited Philip Larkin in Hull, last year I went to see Bukowski, so this year I've come to where George Harrison and Tom Petty had their funerals for some more morbid birthday reflection: --- "You and I will meet again When we're least expecting it Somewhere in some far off place I will recognize your face I won't say good-bye my friend For you and I will meet again I heard you singing to no one I saw you dancing all alone One day you belonged to me Next day I just wouldn't know One day all the rules will bend And you and I will meet again"

Happy 90th birthday to my grandad, Henry. 90! Here he is when I made him tell me about his tattoos, which he got in 1946 for 4 and 6 in Dover before shipping out to serve in Egypt and Israel. 90!
