🔥 Heatwave Has Arrived in Japan 🇯🇵

After sweeping across Europe, the heatwave has now reached Japan!!!

🥵 Many areas are experiencing their first days above 35°C, with temperatures expected to climb closer to 40°C in the coming weeks. Extreme heat can be dangerous, so it's important to take extra care of yourself and those around you.

💧 Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day.
🥗 Eat balanced meals to help your body maintain energy and recover from the heat.
🧊 Keep your body cool by using cooling towels, handheld or portable fans, cooling packs...

⚠️ Watch out for signs of heatstroke such as dizziness, headache, nausea, or confusion. If you or someone around you experiences these symptoms, move to a cool place, hydrate, and seek medical attention if needed.

Stay safe, stay cool, and take care of each other this summer! 🌿❄️

🚲 Did you know?

-------------------------------------------

Since 2015, Okayama University's Tsushima Campus has been part of Okayama City's Momochari bicycle-sharing network, providing a convenient and environmentally friendly way to travel around the city.

Momochari is Okayama City's public bike-sharing service, allowing users to rent a bicycle from one port and return it to another across the city. The service offers an affordable and flexible transportation option for commuting, running errands, sightseeing, and getting around campus.

At Okayama University's Tsushima Campus, Momochari ports are located at:

📍 Okayama University 50th Anniversary Memorial Hall
📍 Okayama University West Gate
📍 In front of Okayama University Library
📍 Okayama University East Gate

The addition of these ports in 2015 marked the first expansion of Momochari into the JR Okayama Station West Exit area, improving access between the station, university and local community.

☔ Rainy Days in Japan

-------------------------------

Japan's rainy season is here, and recent typhoon weather has brought more rain to many areas.

The gray skies can be a bit heavy, but there's also something nice about the sound of rain, a warm coffee and walking under the rain.

🔎 Believe it or not, rain can be good for your mood. The fresh air and relaxing sound of rainfall can help people feel calmer and less stressed.

🔎 Research suggests that when raindrops hit the ground, they create negative ions in the air. These particles have been linked to reduced stress, improved mood, and higher energy levels. The fresh smell after rain - known as petrichor - is also believed to have a calming effect.

To everyone: stay safe and take care. 🌧️💙
