    When I was a kid, summer nights could actually get a little chilly. I don't know if it's because everyone's blasting their ACs these years or what, but it's terrifyingly hot now.

      The moment Taiwanese people feel that summer vibe, a voice in their head probably says, 'Well, the good days are over...' It's just too hot. Seriously, please don't visit Taiwan in the summer~~~~

        It also makes you wonder, 'Did I really survive last summer like this...?'

          Nope, just stayed in Taipei city. The weather's so unbearable, I didn't even want to go out.

              It's seriously so much hotter than Japan.

                Tell me about it! I was in Japan, and then flew to Taiwan – the heat here is just so much more intense.

                  Seriously, I've tried 3 restaurants recommended on Xiaohongshu (xhs) so far, and 2 of them were terrible! So for the rest of my trip, I'm completely avoiding places recommended on xhs. Taipei is way too hot; I even got heatstroke yesterday. It's supposed to be even hotter this weekend – I think I'm going to pass out.

                    Yeah, Xiaohongshu recommendations have let me down so many times. Now I just go into places that look good to me; I don't follow xhs anymore.

                      Yesterday, I stepped out for half an hour to pick up my kid, and it felt like I was evaporating. You absolutely need sunscreen and a hat, and to cover up well when you go out, otherwise it's truly awful.

                        Oh man, that sounds rough. I feel uncomfortable just reading about it.
