This is where I wish I could upload the photos but... again, working on it. It's different from Canada... I've told a few people in chats, but here we go...
It's not cold here. They think it's cold here, it's not. The temperature ranges from like -5 in the evenings to 0 or +2 in the afternoon. (It says it's +8 right now, but still feels a little cool.) I still wear my winter coat, but I get hot walking places. There's not snow on the ground - it seems like it's an event whenever it is.
The floor at my apartment is heated, that's something else. Since my feet are now barely ever cold, I now barely ever feel cold. Honestly, the heated floor is nice.
There is smog. There isn't really such a thing as a clear day, which I expect will wear on me eventually. Even sunny days, which it is right now, aren't really sunny. It's sunny and grey at the same time, which is truly a bizarre look. When it's overcast, it's REALLY overcast, haha.
Jetlag hit me really hard. That first weekend I was struggling with homesickness, not wanting to eat (but still being hungry???), and so Saturday I slept from 3pm to around 3am, and then Sunday I stayed up 3am to 8pm (pretty much watched Parks and Rec all day), and then slept 8pm until 630am on Monday morning.
