Rain and more rain.
Every year Japan goes through the rainy season. It usually starts in June but this year is expected to start around May 20th. So let't plan for it.
1. It is best to buy a fold-up umbrella that you can keep in your bag all the time.
2. A waterproof bag from a 100 yen store is also good. It can help keep your books etc. dry when the rain really comes down.
3. Mold is a big problem in Japan from all the rain and humidity. Moisture absorbing products are also available in 100 yen stores. It is good to get some for your closet, shoes etc.
4. Check your weather app before you make plans or leave for school. Then you can be sure you have an umbrella, waterproof bag etc.
Okay, now we are ready for rainy season. Let's get wet!
