I've lived here for a year and a half, and despite the ups and downs, I generally love living in Tokyo. However, summer is brutal for me. Everything becomes so difficult, even waking up in the morning.
I just hate leaving my apartment. The 8-minute walk to the train station feels like a 10-kilometer marathon, and by the time I get there, I'm drenched in sweat. I feel like I'm stuck in a sauna! I never knew I could swear this much before moving to Japan.
Some days, I have headaches and feel exhausted all day. It was the same way last summer, and I felt like myself again as soon as the weather cooled down. So, am I the only one who hates Japanese summers?
