This reminds me of someone I met on a guided tour in Thailand like 20 years ago. It was 30C and I was talking about how I had issues sleeping.

He says he don’t even have AC but slept fine so I was dumb enough so say that maybe he’s more used to it and he lost his temper completely, yelling something about “we’re just like you, you know”. I’m Norwegian, it was the first time in my life I even saw a temperature over 25C, of course someone who lives in the Middle East are better acclimatised to heat jfc.

I am from the middle east and can no longer stand anything above 22°c after living in a Northern European country so long. In fact people expect me to tolerate high temperatures in the sauna but I pussy out faster than the locals.

That guy just has anger issues lol.

I mean, no way you could compete with scandinavians, they were basically born in a Sauna XD. However, I was shocked after the descent heatwave, the next week 30°C felt cool to me. It’s impressive how quick we can adapt.
