I would like to talk about summers any day, anyime you pick in summer. In my country, it is hateful to me because it is blazing hot temperature sometimes, so to 45 or 50 degree. In my country, especially in Karachi, it is a coastal city. So, uh, there isn’t uh, much, uh, winters here. And you have to tolerate, uh, blazing hot sun. And for those people who are going out to work or for a student like me who has to study in his college and go out daily to his educational institute, it becomes quite intolerable to go out in this kind of heat. Recently, a couple of years ago, there was a heat stroke incident in my city due to this weather. Uh, it was unbearably hot and uh, many innocent lives were wasted. At least four or 500 people, uh, fainted and many of them died due to heat stroke. So I really disliked this kind of weather. And most of the years, I would say 270 days out of 365 days. It is quite hotr in my city and my country overall. So it is disliked by not just me and uh, by other individuals as well because you aren’t able to carry out most of your daily tasks. And people then tend to wait for winters to arrive and they would enjoy their favorite fruits or go out on holidays, uh, in those days. But as uh, far as summer is concerned, I really dislike it because of it hotness and it impractical conditions. And I like to stay home in this kind of weather. But whenever I m am forced to go out to attend my college or go to my coaching institute, I do take an umbrella or book, uh, a taxi service which is air conditioned so I can be protected from blazing hot sun. But all in all, I think in future I would like to shift in a colder country so I don’t have to tolerate this kind of weather.

I would like to talk about summers, any day, anytime you pick in summer. In my country, it's something I really dislike because it's blazing hot, sometimes reaching temperatures of 45 or 50 degrees Celsius. In my country, especially in Karachi, which is a coastal city, there aren't really any winters. You have to tolerate the blazing hot sun. For people who go out to work or students like me who have to study in college and go out daily to their educational institute, it becomes quite intolerable to be outside in this kind of heat. Recently, a couple of years ago, there was a heat stroke incident in my city due to this weather. It was unbearably hot, and many innocent lives were lost. At least four or five hundred people fainted, and many of them died due to heat stroke. So, I really dislike this kind of weather. Most of the year, I would say 270 days out of 365, it's quite hot in my city and my country overall. It's disliked by not just me, but by other individuals as well, because you aren't able to carry out most of your daily tasks. People then tend to wait for winters to arrive, and they would enjoy their favorite fruits or go out on holidays during those days. But as far as summer is concerned, I really dislike it because of its hotness and impractical conditions. I like to stay home in this kind of weather. But whenever I am forced to go out to attend college or go to my coaching institute, I do take an umbrella or book a taxi service that is air-conditioned so I can be protected from the blazing hot sun. But all in all, I think in the future I would like to move to a colder country so I don't have to tolerate this kind of weather.
