I remember the days before I moved to Riobamba. In my town, the weather became extremely cold, with grey skies and constant wind. Such miserable weather really affected my mood. I was already feeling down and anxious about leaving my hometown and starting a new life in another city. It felt like the weather was reflecting exactly how I felt inside cold, gloomy, and uncertain. I had so little enthusiasm left and felt frustrated. The whole atmosphere made it harder to stay positive about the move.
