As much as A/C is amazing, it’s the lack of moving air that makes me the most uncomfortable. I’ve always been surprised at how much of Europe seems to have no interest in fans, ceiling or otherwise.
- vyrotek 6y agoIn Italy many are worried about "colpo d'aria" (blast of air) which they blame for all sorts of health problems. They also dislike ice in their drinks and think eating/swallowing some will hurt you too. I'm not certain whether the current generation of youth believe it or not. Source: Mother is Italian.

- baq 6y agoat my latitude wind blows from the west 80% of the time. i can count windless days in the year on my fingers.
- dpeck 6y agoThat sounds really nice. Which latitude? Most of my time in Europe has been UK/Ireland/Netherlands/Belgium/Austria and in the summers I wouldn’t say I’m often “hot” but it does often feel stuffy. Especially in bedrooms, and sometimes feeing that same way on warmer autumn days as well.
