The past weeks have been great, in spite of the off and on rain, because it wasn't very cold. Off went the beanie caps, the layers of clothes, the thick jackets for protection against the cold. The cold has returned once again and it will stay here till next Wesdnesday according to the weather forecasts. Another yellow alert is in effect, especially for the North. As usual, the South will be much warmer, even though nothing really special...Algarve will be at its peak with a mere 12ºC!!
Advice was given again to layer clothing and all sorts of sensible measures to take. The bad thing about winter for me is that i hate to be covered with plenty layers of clothes, i'm that kind of guy who would want to walk around naked, if i was allowed to lol .
My body doesn't react well to temperature change. Headache, earache, muscle aches, depression , etc.. I'm not alone, I hear the same complaints from other people. Sometimes i hear people from Finland, Norway or Sweden saying they love cold and they are very used to cold weather but that only happens because they have their houses fully equipped against cold weather, since those are traditional-cold countries.
Here, it's very expensive to have a central heating machinery in every house unlike those northern-european countries, as you already know Portugal is only cold a few times a year and people can't afford this comodity for such a small amount of weeks...so it's just hold on to something warm and hot and hope till the cold goes away...lol
So, it's a good time to visit Serra da Estrela now...and to practice something we call here as sku, hahaha...as i told you before the Portuguese word for ass is "cu" so we call the act of sliding down on your ass with something underneath as "Sku" hahaha...you should try it...it's pretty exciting... maybe one day we can have some holidays there...just don't know when :-((((

i think the climate in Portugal is similar to Hong Kong . Tho our summer will not reach to 40'C but the most hottest day can have 37-38'C sometime. Same as winter , not more than 5 days the temperature will lower than 10'C through out the whole winter time .Most household in HK will buy a small heater for keeping warm when sleeping.we also have some kinda fleece heated underblanket , you place it in bewteen the metress and quilt cover .
++ maybe get yourself a fleecy teddy bear ...haha
