Started in Scotland, on the frozen nasty east coast (in the 70s, when it was snowpocalypse, which should but doesn't care Tories/Trumpets). Swimming in the North Sea when you're an ignorant kid is some bullshit.
Moved to England, the southwest, where long, languid summers and 80 degree SCORCHIO Sun headlines were normal.
Moved to London. Everything was polluted and hot.
Moved to LA - where I was the ONLY person walking between LaBrea and LaCiengega. Except the cast of Miracle Mile (you should watch)
Moved to San Francisco, which can vacillate between 100 degreees arid and 50 degree fog, within a single linear mile.
Seattle: Perfect summer, depressing winter. Nothing else. Just those two.
Ideal? Tulum Mexico: Super hot and humid, but coool swimming opportunities everywhere, and refreshing drinks galore. Also safer than everywhere in Australia.
I get severe sunburn in 30 minutes. But if I have spray on sunscreen, put me in the Sunshine starship Solarium. I get why it's hypnotic.
