I just figured I’m going to be freaking cold next week
I’m off to Tokyo on Saturday. Work, not holidays. I know that the seasons in the northern hemisphere are opposite to here in Australia, so I did realise it would be winter in Japan, but just what that entailed didn’t really hit home for me until the last day or so. First, I looked up [...]
