Also we have kinda do seasons here, right now it’s “wet”, meaning in the highlands it tends to be drizzly and clouds more often, and you get 1-2 15 minute showers, and in the low lands, it’s sunny all day, and you get absolutely dumped on for 15-30 minutes in the late afternoon and sometimes in the morning.
I didnt actuallt think about the fact that its cooler in the mountains even at the equator so I was always curious as to why large numbers of people near the equator chose to live im such places. I thought they mainly did it cause up in the mountains the view is prettier.
But the heat of the equator gets mellowed out a bit by the heightened level into the atmosphere… so…
It’s p nice being able to wear a jacket, there’s areas like this all over the Highlands. The regions north of Hanoi is like this too, Sa Pa (gives ski resort town vibes, was just some poor ethnic minority villages 20 years ago, now it has a ton of investment and Vietnamese moved in from all over the country), Ha Giang (was the poorest area, now a lot of tourists go there, the cops there suck), Cao Bang (nearly as poor, didn’t get as many tourists, but the people are way more chill, better hiking IMO), but Da Lat is a bit more charming.
Many areas in Yunnan, China, incl Kunming, a city of 10m have similar climate, and great food if you like mushrooms. Medellin in Colombia is also pretty stable and an amazing place to live, but a little warmer.
The fuck’s a “season”?
Vietnam does not use the metric system? Prolly then the only victory the US achieved in the Vietnam war lol
They do, but I’m from America so I use whatever.

Same thing happens in Nigeria Ive heard. I think that many countries near the equator also have seasons that look like this too.
Yes, equatorial areas only have wet and dry seasons, but they tend to be too hot, up here in the mountains, it’s always nice.
In the mountains at the equator…

You’re not wrong.
As someone who is constantly cold unless I’m at 75°F or above, this looks amazing. Thanks, dysautonomia!

Tbh when my body temp is under 75F, I’m also kinda cold
Oh, you meant air temp? Tbh I’d say lucky you because it’s easier to put on clothes when it’s cold than it is to be more naked when you’re hot
Is there a place like this but like 40°F and moist?

Mostly islands in the antarctic ocean or north atlantic, off alaska, and a few in the Andes if you prefer mountains.
