@NMBA This brings to mind a conversation I had at work once as the people standing around included a student in shorts on a -25C day and a recently arrived professor from Brazil experiencing his first winter here. He (the Brazilian) said he was feeling really confused by winter, because even though it was really cold he wasn’t experiencing it. He moved from heated house to heated car to heated office, wearing heavily insulated clothing and boots, always enveloped in an artificial cocoon of mild warmth … unlike in Brazil where a 5C winter day meant waking up in a cold, unheated room, shower, dress in single digit cold, travel in cold unheated transit, and work all day in unheated spaces. Said he felt much more connected to the experience of winter in Brazil than he did in Edmonton: perhaps that’s what the shorts wearers are subconsciously looking for? 🤷♂️
Heather@NMBA @DavidM_yeg I had a similar experience in Brazil. They all thought it was hilarious that the Canadian was cold and I had to explain that the rare time we weren't in a heated environment, we had special clothing. Brazilians will just put on a sweater.
