Over 40°C Outside, But This Gujarat House Stays Cool Without AC (thebetterindia.com)

Amidst the dry and arid city of Bharuch in Gujarat, there exists a remarkable house that defies the norm of blasting coolers and air conditioners to beat the heat. Unlike most households, this unique abode manages to remain comfortably cool without any of these devices.

A lot of houses here in colombia are built in the same way. I much prefer this way than AC drying out the air and making it smell bad.

If the AC makes the air smell bad, it's time to clean/replace the filters. A properly working AC has no effect on the smell of the air at all.
