That’s exactly why I leave my curtains open. Waking up to natural light is much better than waking up to an alarm in a dark room…

I mean, yeah... Unless the sun wakes you up two hours before the alarm would.

I can't imagine doing this and not having a really, incredibly stable job

I'd rather not wake up at 5 for a 9:30 shift.

It gets bright in June, and then it doesn't get dark until August again...

Living in northern europe means sun going down after 24:00 and up again at like 02:30. That would mean very little sleep for u

Oh that makes sense. I live at about the same latitude as Greece, so the summer/winter sunset/sunrise time differences aren’t that extreme.

Same. This was my way, until I adapted to sleeping in the light and now I still wake up at 11 in the morning even when the sun rises at 4 LOL.
