Reading Kapuscinski.
There's something magical about reading of the coldness of Siberia while being broiled by the nordic sun.

"Whiteness is often associated with finality, with end, with death. In those cultures in which people live with the fear of death, mourners dress in black, to scare death away from themselves, isolate it, confine it to the deceased. But here [in Sibiria], where death is regarded as another form, another shape of existence, mourners dress in white and dress the deceased in white: whiteness is here the color of acceptance, consent, of a surrender to fate".
