Winter has started in Thessaloniki once again, and it feels so unreal compared to the place where I used to live for almost my whole life. It will be my fourth winter in Greece, but I still can’t get used to the blue sky and relative warmth outside. My perception of the temperature, though, changes. I’m getting cold easier. I’m not used to constant rain anymore. We don’t have a lot of precipitation, though, but even what we have is quite a lot, it feels. I really like the Christmas mood starting to appear here and there. It doesn’t feel exactly as in my homeland, but I started appreciating what I have. I try to fixate on small things that boost my mood, and try to accept whatever I get. In the uncertain world, I guess, this is the only thing we have.
