Satoshi Manor: Chapter 11

Autumn was beautiful but November was a month I can plan on traveling in the future. My November this year included side-quests to Vietnam, California, and Hawaii. I was fortunate to catch the first snowfall before I left for Vietnam and then to be here in time for the first accumulation now in December. Technically, Winter doesn’t begin until December 21st, but as you can see in the video - it’s winter here already. And though Spring begins March 21st - I believe that Winter will extend until about May. Knowing that, it makes sense why residents here spend most of the summer preparing for Winter. It actually encompasses from about November 1st to May 1st - so half the year. Autumn felt like it was about a month and a half long and I’m guessing Spring will be about the same (May and part of June?) which leaves summer at about three months. The question of my visa and ability to stay here full time/long term is still up in the air but given what I am learning about the seasons, that may not be such an issue - because let’s face it. I like to visit new places even if I don’t much like the travel part itself. Music by Patrizio and Artsiom Bialou from Pixabay This is a public episode.
