Please consider making a similar post for winter.
When it’s freezing and raining, comfort beats style. I’d love to find a middle ground. I either walk or use public transport when I travel, so I can’t usually rely on airconditioning.

Thanks :)

I am from PERU, which is a very varied country because of its different places to visit and multiculturality :)

If you come hear, just in case, you CAN wear shorts or pants. Everybody does it and it is not considered vulgar at all, so don’t worry about that. In fact, if you are going on a trip to the highlands (like Cusco, to visit Machu Picchu, for example) it is better to wear comfortable clothes that let you move easily, as there are multiple activities to practice there, like trekking, hiking, etc. and they are incredibly exciting and FUN! And this is not only applied to Peru, but to most places in South America where you can practice these activities.

Of course, in cities you can wear shorts, pants, skirts or dresses, depending on how do you like to dress, and on the season too.

Summer is from December to March, so if you want to wear a cool dress, skirt or shorts, you should better wear them those months, specially in cities in the coastline, as the weather is warmer and sunnier!

Thanks for the post, it was really helpful for me, as I’m probably going to Sydney this summer :D

Hope my advice help you!

“If you’re going anywhere in Africa or Asia you probably shouldn’t wear anything shorter than Bermuda Shorts and even then it may be better to cover you knee.”
