Today, after what has felt like weeks and weeks of heat waves and bushfires, the Melbourne weather finally changed and we had a wet, cold, grey day. I much prefer wintery days to the Australian summer. During summer the days are long, and you feel you never get time to rest. It is too simple to stay at work late, to stay at the pub or to just let the day slide away. Whilst this can be nice, it also means projects and plans get pushed to the side, always put of till tomorrow. Manana.
In winter the sky comes lower and your world shrinks a little. Days become shorter and you don’t want to go outside. In winter riding to work is less fun, but the fashion is better. I’m looking forward to this winter.
