living in a tropical country

living in a tropical countryIn some way, I can say it is still a blessing that we live in a tropical country. We can use our clothes the whole year because we only have two seasons the rainy and the summer season. That means we are not required to wear thick winter coats.

During the nights we have the option to turn on the air-conditioning unit or just open the windows to let the fresh air in. Some people don’t even wear clothes to comfortably sleep and cut electric cost. Of course, for those people in the area with winter needs electric blanket or very thick blanket to combat the freezing temperature.

Actually I feel a bit silly because we do have thick comforter despite the fact we live in a tropical country. We love to turn the cooling system to its maximum temperature during the night. Yet, we feel too cold after a few hours and we scramble inside the comforter. Hehehe! But, for now we learned to sleep by just opening the window. It really saves a lot of our electric consumption. Good thing, December months provide cool night breeze.
