isn't it always humid and hot in the Phillipines? I know there is often very heavy rain and a lot of mosquitoes
not well at all, 40 degrees peak means going outside is comparable to suicide
Went from 40+ in Dubai to coming home to low 30's and it honestly feels worse in the UK because AC just isn't a thing here and the humidity fucking sucks
yeah it's always gonna feel warmer over here bc of our infrastructure, our stone/brick buildings and our shit ton of concrete is made to retain heat, in warmer parts of the world buildings are usually built with heat-reflective materials and built in AC
made to retain heat, yet it's still freezing in the winter 😂 we're just not good at building shit
I live in a new-build house too with big bay windows and skylights and that mf draws in heat like a greenhouse
Leaving window open in the evening, keeping shades on the whole day and having the fan on 24/7
