gifted a dry-soon https://www.lakeland.co.uk/21736/dry-soon-3-tier-heated-airer - fancy thing that I wouldn't consider buying myself in an hundred years, but actually a drying rack with a built in heating element is an amazing thing to own. way cheaper than a dryer (not that any of the rented places I've stayed in have had one) but can still reliably dry laundry way better than even sticking it on radiators or whatever
Going off this, as someone who lives in a cold weather city, a really good winter jacket and snow boots.
I know they’re ridiculously expensive, but I have a Canada Goose parka and it’s so warm that I don’t even need to zip the front unless it’s in the single digits. It truly makes going outside in the winter a decent experience rather than me hating every second of being outdoors.
For boots, I have some classic LL Bean duck boots with the liner. They’re so comfortable and they perform exceptionally well in the snow and ice.
