to get cold easily / to freeze easily

Hi there,

Can I say: "I get cold quite easily" but I do not mean that I get sick easily, it is about feeling cold. I guess that I freeze easily is wrong, isn't it?

As to freeze, that would be less common, but might be acceptable. But it does suggest that you turn into an ice cube. Water freezes easily. People, less often.
