People from the "hotter" regions, how do you deal with the heat? (lemm.ee)

I am from Eastern Europe and this is the hottest summer on my memory. For at least 3 consecutive years the heat is breaking all records.

This stuff is unbearable, I can't even play video games on my laptop, because it warms up very fast and the keyboard becomes uncomfortable for me to use.

So, could you please share any useful tips on how do you survive the summer?

It feels pretty good to dip your hands or feet in a bowl of ice water after being outside

Cooling your feet and legs is a great way to cool your body. So for sure wear shirts, but also sandals/flipflops can help you lose a little heat

Air conditioner... After moving to Europe I'm amazed by how people are so miserable and complaining every day for 1 to 2 months, then just repeat it over and over every year.

Enjoy it while it lasts. Winter is coming soon enough and you'll have shitty weather again for the next 10 months.
