It's So Cold

in cold •  2 years ago 

The temperature where I live right now is 20 degrees Celsius, and I am freezing. Those of you who are in Europe or North America are probably laughing at me right now, but may I remind you that I live in Southeast Asia and the coldest it can get is probably only 15 degrees Celsius.

This is how I look right now.

I got up today shivering, usually the next thing I do after waking up and breathing is to shower. Well not today, it was so cold that I ended up just staring at the shower instead of taking one. Even though the water can be set to warm after I get out of the shower the warmness disappears.

Unlike me, my father and cat absolutely love this weather. My dad walks around in shorts while I put on my winter jacked, socks and mittens. Latte is a Persian, so he comes with his own built-in coat. I guess I'll get used to this cold weather...eventually! At least now I can finally put all the winter jacket my dad bought me to good use. We both know that we live in a hot country, but we just can't stop ourselves from buying winter wear. Everyone has their own obsessions.

But as you know, lucky to get that low in Thailand! (apart from up in mountains)
Strange cool microclimate here - last night was 5 C below BKK.
But is hot during the day

Indeed but it saves money on A/C 👍

I remember getting used to the heat after a few years there and feeling cold at xmas even though it was around 25c, the coldest I felt was rainy season on a motorbike, I was shivering even though when I stopped in a bar for an hour my clothes were dry again.
