In Thailand, cool weather is a bad thing.

Let's be honest. Thailand is hotter than hell most of the time. But there is that rare period in parts of December and January when it is relatively less hot. This year, we are blessed with an abundance of relatively less hot weather. Sounds great, right?

Wrong! Due to atmospheric conditions at this time of year, if the temperature goes down, the pollution goes up. You can still go outside. You just have to wear an N95 mask. Perhaps that's one of the benefits of Covid. We got used to wearing face masks.
