Gregg was waiting for Jessica to arrive back to his hotel room. She had gone to get some heroin for herself after he gave her the money to do so. He is a former addict, but hasn't used in many decades but still likes to hang out with addicts.
Alex speaks excellent English. He is coy about what he does and where he's from but he's lived here at the Kumbala for many years. After we got to know each other a bit more, he told me he's a writer and is working on writing a mystery novel. He explained the storyline to me and frankly, I think it is brilliant. It's not finished yet.
