The Humidity is Real: A Soul-Searching Singer's Messy Take on [City]

okay, so i just got back from [city] and my head is still spinning. the weather was... interesting. i just checked and it's... there right now, hope you like that kind of thing. 88% humidity? seriously? my hair is still trying to figure out what decade it's in. and the pressure? 1014 hPa? feels like the air itself is holding its breath. i heard someone say it's like swimming through soup. gross, but kinda true.

i stayed in this tiny place near the old market. the neighbors? well, if you get bored, [cities] are just a short drive away. but honestly, i mostly just hid in my room, trying to find a quiet corner for my voice.

someone told me that the local dive bar has the best acoustics for a solo set. i heard that from a guy who looked like he'd slept in his guitar case. i checked the reviews on TripAdvisor, but let's be real, those are just people trying to sound clever.

i found this spot for cheap coffee, but it's more like 'coffee that won't make you explode' territory. the barista looked like they'd seen a ghost.

here's a map, because getting lost is half the fun, right?

and some visuals to distract from the existential dread:

i also heard that the local tourism board has some weird events. check out their site if you're into that sort of thing.

i'm just trying to find my voice here, literally and figuratively. maybe next time i'll bring a dehumidifier.
