You are one of the three or so first generations of humanity to ever live in a world with air conditioning, not to mention dehumidifiers. I mean, can't do the whole outside, but you can have a climate-controlled house, climate-controlled vehicle, and -- depending upon what you do for work -- possibly a climate-controlled workplace.
Air conditioning is a luxury much of the world can't afford.
I would expect that OP probably can.
OP is German. Most Germans don't have AC, in part due to higher electricity costs. Especially lately with the whole Ukaine thing.
Here's a relevant article:

OP goes to SEA (wherever that is ) and Australia, goes to sea during summer and to mountains during winter, every year.
No doubt he is a bourgeois and he can afford AC. But he doesn’t want it. He like the seasoning.
Sounds bad for the environment
The hotter it gets the more we use AC.
The more we use AC the hotter it gets.
It's a vicious cycle.

The vicious cycle is Fat Bastard from Austin Powers, not Shrek.
Yes but both are Mike Myers doing the same accent and OP, the one I responded to, is describing living in a swamp.
Like mowing knotweed.
Sounds expensive
Also one of the first generations to see annual heat records broken back to back.
Sounds like a CIA psyop
