Also, on a helpful note -
If you ever plan to visit the above shown places, make sure you’re covered in at least 3 layers of clothing because it gets nastily cold. Do carry your medication if you have any. Cover your hands with gloves and get a beanie for yourself so that you won’t be attacked by the cold weather.
