Hello Spain, me here.

So, did you hear about "insulation"? Like, you know, when you make buildings you add a layer of insulating stuff so that the outside and inside are not the same temperature. You know works great when it is cold outside. If you have inside heating then that heat stays inside mostly. Because now we feel like we are the ones warming up the climate simply by letting all of the inside heat outside, warming up the climate, eventually melting the polar bears.

Such a waste Spain! And costly!

You know Spain, Romania the poor brother of Europe...has very warm houses even when outside is like -30. It is not expensive, you know....But you Spain, even when outside is 14 degrees, inside can be 12.

INSULATION.

If buildings are not insulated then they simply waste energy.

In Spain seems to be normal to have these uncomfortable homes. Many stay with their outside shoes inside the house, maybe with their jackets too :)).

Anyway, wanted to rant about this a bit now that I am bloody COLD inside. It is better outside....

If your climate there is that cold then I can't imagine living without insulation, why don't they build properly insulated houses?

I suspect it is because it never gets too cold like minus degrees where we live. Also it is a touristic area so they only care about the summer....
