One of the constant battles in Japan during the winter is keeping warm. With no central heating it can be difficult. Moving to a different room means you have to heat up that room, and sometimes it’s colder inside than it is outside. The problem for me is I have really bad circulation in my arms and legs. My feet are always freezing. Well, I found a solution!
I bought this at the local supermarket. It’s a foot warmer. It comes with this sealed bag of gelatinous liquid inside.
What you do is put it in the microwave for around three minutes. Slip it into it’s cloth pouch.
Place it at your feet, and you’ll have toasty warm toes in no time. I like to use it when I’m watching TV. I also like to put in my bed so it’s nice and warm when it’s time to sleep.
