    • learn how to drive on a slippery surfaces
    • building on the previous one - buy a set of winter tires and if needed chains
    • always have spare warm clothes in the car
    • make sure your house gets enough warmth and ventilation to prevent mold
    • keep a huge bag of road salt in a garage
    • get yourself few sets of breathing underwear
    • depending on the outside temperature learn how to dress like an onion

    Last but not least, learn to ski/snowboard. Best way to spend time outdoors. Also, develop a taste for a mulled wine.

        More like the underwear that won’t make you sweat and if you do, it would get the excess of moisture away from the body.

        I know you’re joking but I’ll answer that it’s not a nice to sweat in warm clothing but have it cool down in skin-contact
