I am from Eastern Europe and this is the hottest summer on my memory. For at least 3 consecutive years the heat is breaking all records.

This stuff is unbearable, I can’t even play video games on my laptop, because it warms up very fast and the keyboard becomes uncomfortable for me to use.

So, could you please share any useful tips on how do you survive the summer?

    Ceiling fan is opposite. You’re cooled by the air going over your body. Typically (in US, at least) that means counter clockwise in summer and clockwise low speed in winter.

    Also as to clothes linen layers are fantastic in heat if available.

      air will be blown over your body either way, all you’re changing is the direction the air is coming from. blowing from the ceiling means blowing hotter risen air
