My first day back, I didn’t have snow boots so I slipped and fell in the ice and to make things worse, I had to walk super slowly to avoid falling again which led to me almost being hit by the train. So please, please buy snow boots in advance. I was also dressed very inappropriately for the weather so unlike me, remember to carry a big coat for when you get off the flight and do not rely on the temperature of the airport.
Furthermore, if your hands are like mine and super sensitive to the cold, make gloves your best friends. Don’t be miserly when it comes to spending on gloves and get ones that are not only warm but also allow you to type on mobile while you have them on so you can wear them all the time you’re outside.
Additionally, it is important to wear layers of clothes and to keep your ears covered. Even if I’m only wearing two layers but my ears are always covered, I feel considerably less cold. If you happen to be in Boston, the weather is immensely fluctuating. It may be sunny and uplifting one day but may just
snow that same night. I for one, despise the snow and cold, strong winds so I eagerly look forward to the sunny days. Don’t take them for granted. However, this is not an invitation to go out in socks because weirdly, the days it is sunnier, the temperatures are actually lower than when it’s snowing.
For me, the only good thing about winters is the ample amount of hot chocolate available everywhere and the hope that it can only go uphill from here. However, if well prepared you may actually start to enjoy this weather. Almost.
