It’s a tale as old as time – the thermostat war. But when it’s between a Sydney native and a Finnish guest, things can get heated (pun intended). Our story begins with a 26-year-old Sydney woman hosting her friend Josh and his Finnish girlfriend, Sara, for the night. Little did she know, the temperature was about to rise, and not just on the thermostat! ️

The Heat of the Matter: Was the Sydney Hostess Unfair or Just Unfazed?
In a clash of climates, our Sydney hostess found herself in hot water with her Finnish guest, Sara, over the temperature in her home. Sara, fresh from the chilly Finnish winter, found the Sydney summer unbearable, leading to a night of discomfort and mosquito bites. Despite offering a fan, the hostess’ refusal to keep the air conditioning on all night sparked a cold response from Sara and her boyfriend, Josh. Now, our hostess is left wondering if she was too harsh or if the heat just got to everyone’s heads. Let’s see what the internet thinks about this sizzling situation… ️
