The light shining through the windows of the old farm-house suggested a beautiful day, but still we hesitated to get out from under the covers, as our exposed faces gave us a hint of the frigid air which would hit us as soon as we did so. There was no heater in this house, except for the electric KOTATSU (a heated table which in accordance with traditional East Asian health principles roasts your feet and loins (lower body) while your upper body remains cold!), so it took a little while to build up the will-power to arise.
