learn to open your doors and windows in the nighttime (with bug nets obviously) and keep them closed during the day, nature’s AC.

The nights aren’t very cool in some parts of the world.

I wish bug nets for windows (or at all) were standard in Sweden. In some places in the country you will be bitten by 10 thousand mosquitoes just because you dared to open the window for a minute.

I keep my PC in my bedroom so it’s hard in general to keep the room comfortable but in the winter you can at least open the windows for a few seconds and nearly instantly make the room comfortable (and without insects). In the summer it’s fucking impossible to keep the room cool no matter what you do. At least the PC has good cooling so it survives; I just wish I would.

You can install bug nets yourself easily. There are some from tesa, its the net and a roll of velcro-like tape. I love them.

It really depends on where you are. There are places where summer is the same temperature as some other place’s winter.

Also, I hate the fact that in winter you have to stay inside all the time, there’s no sun and everything is cold and sad. Spring and Summer are the times of the year when you travel, go out, enjoy nature and make memories.

And if you have a decently insulated home or AC, you can sleep great.

I make memories in winter too though. Nothing better than playing in the snow with your little daughter. Or ice-skating.

Also, pubs are fucking great in the winter.

That said, I do prefer the summers we have here. The temperature is always around 23-27 °C here, which is great. Also very little humidity.

Opening the windows during sleep sucks in winter tho. That’s the only downgrade for me

Another reason would be you can’t use heavier blankets in summer
