Ah, the winter blues of Vancouver, BC. While some days bring bluebird skies and fresh pow for skiing, other days are downright gloomy. Spending this past Christmas in Singapore meant warm, sunny, and +25°C weather, which is quite atypical of how most Canadians spend their winters.
However, coming back to the overcast, bone-chilling, gray, and wet Vancouver winter was a climate shock my body had yet to feel before. A week or so of jetlag-ridden sleep cycles and my circadian rhythm was back to normal, but I couldn’t scratch the itch of yearning for sun and truly despising this city’s gloomy winter weather.
Thanks to Amazon Prime’s same/one day shipping, a solution to this problem was less than 24 hours away.
