CLIMATE AND CHARACTER Does the climate of a country really the behaviour of the people who live in it and help to its culture? Have you ever heard of people from hot countries being described 'warm and friendly' while those from places with low temperatures and grey climates are sometimes called 'cold and distant? The people who live in colder climates tend spend much more time at home television or wondering what colour to paint the living room. As a result of their being 'shut in' at home for of their lives, perhaps they also develop personalities to match. Maybe they tend to be expressive in their everyday lives. In , we see that people who live in warm and sunny countries spend much more time outdoors.In squares all southern Europe, for example, we can see hundreds of people the day drinking coffee in cafes and chatting. It certainly seems as if climate affects bahaviour, you have to be careful not to generalise too much.
