What's the weather like?
Summers are hot and disgustingly humid. Winters are cold but not freezing - the temperature generally stays above zero degrees and so there is no snow. However, there is not as much heating indoors as you may be accustomed to and so it can feel quite cold even in your home or school.
Should I bring my winter coat?
If at all possible, have your winter clothes sent to you and don't waste space in your suitcase with bulky things like winter coats.
Do I need to bring an umbrella? I heard there's a rainy season
Absolutely not. You can buy them everywhere.
