Well at 4.7°c i m shivering. Many people like to visit the hill station in India to enjoy the snowfall, but noone ever bothered to understand the life of local people who thrive in such hatch climate. In some snowy areas, people carry a mini coal stove under their coat, to keep themselves warm. Not sure how they deal at home. I m sure they do not have the centralized heating module at home. It would be interesting to explore their lifestyle too someday. 😉
You should go and check it out. Spend a few weeks with them and see what it is like. My be a pretty good experience!
I would love to, it is on my to do list. understanding the basic lifestyle of them in harsh winter is always a learning curve.
