Midsummer Tokyo Rain
last week it seems that all of a sudden rain season has returned. complaints about the heat and humidity have changed 180 degrees into complaints about the rainfall. For a hostel rain means that people tend to spend more time inside than usual … Even in tokyo, the pace of life seems to slow down when it continues to rain for days in a row. If rain can slow the shedules of the trains down , it automatically slows the schedules of people down as well. And in that sense, it actually brings people closer. everyone has more time to talk with other people in the building “because it rains”. The common room is so popular on rainy days in the weekend that there is almost no chance to clean it…. except very early in the morning !
