I live in an area with very hot weather. Although the rainfall is moderate, it doesn’t really affect it. Even when it rains heavily, it doesn’t feel cold. Just a little colder.

However, there are other areas in Indonesia where the weather is always cold. For example, the highlands of Mount Bromo in East Java. When I traveled there, I shivered with cold. Even though the sun had risen, the cold still felt thick. It’s just that there was no snow there.

I don’t seem to like cold weather. That condition makes me busy looking for a comfortable position and wearing thick clothes. My skin color becomes darker (so it’s not good for taking photos), and I also become unproductive at work. Moreover, I easily catch colds and asthma, which is very risky to recur if the air is too cold.

Occasionally, going to areas with cold weather is okay for me. I like flowers, plants, and beautiful mountain views. Areas with cold weather spoil me with views like that.

Living in a cold area also makes me lazy about bathing. I like bathing, not only for its cleanliness and fragrant body but also as a way to freshen my mind and feelings. However, the cold was unbearable.
