27 Oct 2025

Description

🥶❄️ In January 1709, Europe woke up and the world had turned to ice. Rivers froze solid, trees split open from the cold, and even the sea turned stiff along the coast. Wine froze in barrels, birds fell from the sky mid-flight, and entire villages huddled in silence, waiting for the thaw that seemed never to come.For months, the Great Frost gripped Europe in its frozen claws, killing crops, livestock, and hope. From Paris to Poland, the continent shivered its way into history’s coldest recorded winter.So wrap yourself in a blanket, listen to the creak of frozen timbers, and drift off to a world where time slowed, firewood ran out, and the only thing left to do—was sleep.👉 Boring History For Sleep | Frost, famine, and the quiet beauty of disaster. 💤
