Cultural Chill: How Air Conditioning Divides Spain and the United States
A recent viral video by content creator "Cristinadas En Dallas" highlights a surprising cultural difference experienced by many travelers and expats: the temperature of air conditioning. In her video, filmed from inside a car, the creator discusses her observations regarding AC settings in Spain versus the United States. According to the creator, public establishments in Spain, such as restaurants and shopping centers, tend to maintain a milder air conditioning temperature, often leaving her feeling warm. This contrasts sharply with her experiences in the United States, particularly in Dallas, where she notes the air conditioning is consistently "very cold" during the summer months. "It is true that the air is very cold in summer," she states, adding that in Dallas, she and others often feel "asfixiated" by the heat outside, but then require a jacket indoors due to the intense cold from the AC. The video prompts viewers to consider their own preferences, asking, "What temperature do you set the air?" The discussion underscores how even seemingly minor environmental differences, like air conditioning settings, can contribute to cultural adjustments for individuals living or traveling abroad.
