this kind of shit cracks me up

i live in the US but in a place where 99% of the house and lodges don't have a/c because we're at 9000ft+ elevation in one of the consistently coldest places in the country, theres only one or two weeks out of the year where it might actually be wanted, and i have heard so many stories from my friends who work in hospitality about people freaking the absolute fuck out when they find out theres no a/c it's wild

I recently moved to the PNW from the East coast and not going to lie in the beginning the thought of no AC killed me cause I was used to hot and humid summers but out here it’s truly not needed! I have a fan and sleep with the windows down in the summer and love it!
