Winter reveals more than cold weather — it shows how people move, gather, slow down, and find warmth in predictable rituals. From kimchi-making and padded jackets to jjimjilbang nights, first snow moments, year-end stages, and Seollal prep, the season becomes a map of habits that return every year. A reminder that winter isn’t just endured; it’s lived through shared rhythms.

Milan moves slower than I’m used to — people walk like time is theirs. I’m still adjusting: learning public transport, surviving on vending machine espresso, and watching the sun set way past 8:30 p.m. The sky is clearer, the coffee is better, and strangers are kind without speaking a word I understand. I haven’t explored everything yet, but I’m here — and I’m hoping the city treats me good.
