I don't know really. I'd prefer to be warming up from being too cold but I would prefer to be in a situation where I was "too hot" so I guess I don't know.
Cooling off is way better. Where I've been working the last 2 weeks, is sheltered from any breeze and very dusty. I find myself thinking about a swim a lot , so I'm spending about an hour in the river after work each day.
I like to sit in front of the fire on cold evenings though.
I love both, but probably prefer cooling off. What's better than entering a supermarket/church/ACed train on a 35°C+ day?
I use to have that experience a LOT that summer (when i didnt have a/c). I use to enter supermarket and go to the diary section (colder) and stay there for a long time supposedly looking at the products but actually just cooling myself
Both are nice but I find heat much more uncomfortable than cold. Being cold is easily ignored for a long while but as soon as I start sweating, finding a place to cool off becomes an immediate priority. Sadly that's not always so easy as air conditioning is nearly inexistent here. Thankfully heat is rare as well.
As heat is so rare, I mostly enjoy it, but it's also very difficult to escape from it. In shopping centers the AC situation is nowadays quite good, but entering a bus with 40C inside temps or my apartment with 28C is not very desirable. Swimming is perhaps the best possibility, but that would require a 30 minute trip in that 40C bus to the beach.
So I'll go with warming up in winter. A snowy, freezing landscape outside, sauna, good food, a couple of beers and relaxing at a fireplace. I doesn't get any better than that!
