I've got a wardrobe to live in any climate of the planet, from Saudi Arabia all the way down to -30C.

Me and my small daugher -she was dressed like someone going to disembark in the moon- used to go out at -10C just for fun in Sweden.

You'de suffer more cold in southern Brazil than any developed country with wintry conditions. No heating. No insulation.

I spend some money in my flat in Curitiba, put double glazing, imported heaters from Sweden and put wooden flooring.

In developed countries is a breeze. I use to have a Volvo V40 -now transformed in Siemens shares- enter the car and and immediately switch ass-heater.

Go into any building and you remove the harness, (that's how I called my anorak) and just a fleece will do.

You should go to Curitiba in a winter, then you'd see how you would freeze!!!
