There's something I really like about the US

Posted by Belthagor - 1 month ago


That: There are people from various countries and each of us are different. No two people are alike. I think it shows during one thing: Hot and cold weather.


I'm from Bulgaria and for many years global warming did not affect climate during summer. Our city despite being a city is very rural and had tall trees next to the sidewalk the whole path for miles.


I went during summer and it felt colder than the US so I've developed some cold resistance in winter.


As I've learned in Medical School: The body tries to stay the same which is called homeostasis. If you have both hot and cold climate moments this weakens the body towards the next season yet I never had that except in summer years later in both Bulgaria and the US.


I was sitting on my balcony and I saw a bunch of people pass by. Some had coats. Some men just wore thick sweatpants, a sweatshirt, and a hat with hands in the pockets.


Many men like cold weather and many don't. Many women like warm weather and some don't.


I personally could trot through the snow with proper attire for hours and never slip on ice. I sweat so much during summer that it reaches my mouth sometimes.


A person who walked out of our building; a close friend. I told them the short version of this yet he's from Spain which is warmer so I'm thinking when he comes back from work if I see him I should explain it in the comfort of our lobby. (Or in my apartment over some hot coffee.)


I only have one last thing to say: Do you think all the people from different origins could learn from each-other during the different extreme seasons? E.G. How to never slip on ice and for me how to handle the heat in the summer?


It's actually kind of embarrassing if I met a woman that I could have just for me the way she would look at me during the summer if we went to eat somewhere or did something together. A bit of a personal detail for me but anyway. I used to have to wipe sweat off my nose so it doesn't go in when I breathe which is mildly annoying yet does not reach the lungs. I've learned a bit how to solve that.


Post Scriptum: The thing I like about it is that I don't sweat. My hair stays dry and doesn't look like it's glued to my head.


Post Post Scriptum: I think there's one thing everyone can agree on. That whether you like cold or hot weather when it's cold everyone likes to turn the heat on and drink something hot in their apartment with family after a long time walking somewhere.


P.P.P.S. I guess I could write it here. When there's ice the easiest thing to do is adjust the way a person walks into a more downward motion than forwards; like stomping forward. This almost completely makes ice lose its ability to make you slip on it because no one can slip from a downward movement.
