Yesterday it was 110 degrees at our California home. The electricity went out at around 7 pm and did not come on until sometime in the night. We are used to air conditioning and having a dishwasher and watching TV or working on the computer.
24 months ago we rented an apartment in Paris about 1/2 block from the Louvre. It was hot in Paris (or as the song says "it sizzles"). The only form of air conditioning we had was an open window. There was no need for a dishwasher as we ate at corner cafes. Why would anyone need a computer? It is Paris. An evening walk along the Seine is better than Facebook; those are real people enjoying other real people.
