I Know A Place, Lake House

I KNOW A PLACE, LAKE HOUSE A man built a two-bedroom tented beach house by Lake Victoria, 8kms from Mbita Town. A private beach. He planted trees, grew grass. It's his home but also home to lots of birds, guinea-fowls, and a cat called Oatmeal. When in bed, he can see distant islands and passing boats. Each night he lights a fire under a large sky. He built it for peace, tranquility, reflection and creating. An escape. He is now sharing it with you, so that you can make it your home too.
