Pollen everywhere!

You know, it barely looks like spring out here - we’re only starting to see patches of green popping out from underneath snow covered mountains and fields. One thing though that has already arrived with a vengeance? Pollen.

It’s all over our bike seats and car windscreens -and I wondered why I woke up sniffling today until I actually looked outdoors. There, I found my answer!

Spring is definitely one of Japan’s most beautiful seasons, but for the allergy sufferers out there it’s not without some negatives!
