Argentina in Colombia is surprised by what happens on sunny days 'It only happens here'

Excessive exposure to the sun can be harmful to your health, as it not only accelerates skin aging, but can also cause skin cancer or other diseases.

However, when sunbathing is done properly, it can provide great health benefits, such as improving sleep, reducing stress and even strengthening bones, according to 'Select Health'.

Argentine content creator Micaela Sposetti has become popular on the social network TikTok for talking about Colombian customs and things that attract her attention about the country, especially Bogotá, where she has been living for some time.

Something that has surprised this young woman is that even though the sun in the Colombian capital does not usually shine as strongly as in other parts of the country, when it does shine, many people use an umbrella because it bothers them a little.

"If there is something about Colombians that really draws my attention (...) Well, not about Colombians, but about the people of Bogota, it is that, despite the fact that the city has exactly the same climate all year round, where the sun is rare and it is always cool or rainy, they (the people of Bogota) have very little endurance," added Sposetti.

The capital's sun is different from that which rises on the coast or in other cities, and this Argentinean not only likes it, but finds it pleasant. In addition, she told her followers in Bogota to enjoy it to the fullest, since, generally, it is always raining.

“There are days when the sun comes out and it hits quite strongly, but it is not as strong as the sun on the coast or in Argentina in the summer, but even if the sun comes out a little, the people of Bogota go out with their umbrellas and that is something I have only seen here,” he said.

Although it is true that he has had the opportunity to visit some cities in Colombia, he still finds it strange that people take out their umbrellas on sunny days, since in his country they are only used when it rains, but not to hide from the sun.

“In Argentina, umbrellas and parasols are only for when it rains, not for the sun, and here, it is very common for people to go out to sunbathe with an umbrella because the sun is out a little and they don't like it. I tell them: enjoy, take vitamin D, put on sunscreen if necessary , but don't use an umbrella, take advantage of the sunshine, which is not very sunny at all,” she concluded.
