Photos of Romanians Burning in the Summer Heat

It’s hot as fuck in Romania at the moment – last weekend, temperatures hit 35°C before noon on both days. There’s no way to escape the heat, to avoid sweating like a pig. I find that Bucharest has a unique sort of beauty when it’s dealing with these kinds of temperatures, so last weekend I went out on the street armed with a camera and a bottle of water. I live in Mexico, and I’ve never had to deal with such oppressive heat.
