I wonder if my girlfriend would look exotic in the US. I think she looks a bit inuit with her round face with huge cheek "balls" and almost almond-like eyes. And they're incredibly bright blue. She was in New York for a couple of days and eithin that timespan she got a whole bunch of compliments, both from cashiers and random people across the streets.

I bet if you walked down any street in London, the non-native plant species would easily outnumber the native species.

People think our climate is like fucking Fairbanks. They think having a temp above freezing in winter is some record heat wave when our average high in January is excactly freezing. They also seem to think we get blizzards every day. The way people describe Upstate NY, you'd swear it has Vostok temperatures with Mount Rainier snowfall.

That places known for being hotter/colder than us at certain times of year must be like that all the time.

When it's 37C+ with an RH of around 20% here, people still call that "humid"

Calling 37ºC (98.6ºF) with a relative humidity of 20% "humid" for most people is incorrect, as that equates to a dew point of approximately 10.3ºC (50.54ºF), which is what an average person will enjoy, but I consider as "Acceptably Dry." However, temperatures at 40ºC (104ºF), with a dew point above 20ºC (68ºF), are normal in the Persian Gulf's summers [at least from the UAE and further south], as onshore winds slightly lower the temperature, while increasing relative humidity.
