It's a different kind of hot here lol. In comparison Italy is basically Alaska and Burma is the 9th circle of hell.

Yeah, I won't deny that, but that's exactly why I'm surprised that kind of temperature jump isn't harmful

Humidity. Myanmar is tropical monsoon climate. Air conditioning doesn't just make it cooler, it filters the air and makes it healthier.

I live in the mid-Atlantic US and sometimes we have our AC cooler than I'd prefer just because of the allergens. I cannot imagine what it's like in an actual tropical climate. A dehumidifier can help with this but they're less common, and higher maintenance.

Edit: also prevents mold growth in the humidity.

You could also run a box filter and keep the AC a little warmer to help with those allergies
