It's cold in Iceland, who knew. Youre, born and raised in Divo, Ivory Coast, has certainly been in for a bit of a culture shock. The country of nearly 300,000 has welcomed him with open arms, but those arms are covered with puffy jackets and gloves. He learned that the summers are quite mild, in that temps rarely rise above 13c (55f) and, while the winters don't stray too far below 0c (32F), they are much colder than Ivorian winter days. There's also a wide variance in daylight hours. Iceland is one of the few countries that experiences 24 hour sunlight days and also boasts some of the shortest days of sunlight with around 4-5. This is not something Tata has ever had to really think about. Luckily, the practice facilities are indoors, so the team can practice however long they need with no idea of where the sun is. And speaking of the team, Youre has gotten familiar with some faces on the team and tried to make some friends. @Asked Madden welcomed him to the team and has warmed the others to him as well. The two personalities seem to mix well, which hopefully means the team can bond quickly. And they'll need to with a fight to stave off relegation quickly approaching.
