“The weather ... I knew it was going to be cold, and I knew it would snow, but I’ve never seen snow like this before. In Wales, where I’m from, we never get snow like this. But it’s actually been a good experience, I can tell my family back home about it. It doesn’t seem like it rains that much here. Back home there’s a lot of rain, it’s very wet, which is miserable. At least here it snows, but the sun is still shining.”
