Fuck the Winter!
I don’t mind melting skin and vampiric, malaria bringing insects as long as I can enjoy long summer evenings, cool drinks, the summerwind rustling in trees while laying in their shadows, eating icecream and going for a swim.
All this is monumentally better than the long darkness, scraping ice from your cars windscreen at 06:00 am and seeing nothing but bare trees for months.
Winter is fine for a month or so, then it should be time again for spring.
I suffer physically during summer and mentally during winter. I 'd love for a long, extended spring time (because I have no allergies ruining it for me), but anthropogenic climate change is 86ing spring and autumn atm.
Let me tell you about these magical lands called "equatorial mountain" climates.
See, you go to a place that's hot year round, then go 1-2km directly upwards, and you get 365 days of spring weather, only variation being how much precipitation you get.
Bogota, Medellin, Da Lat, Kunming, all amazing weather year round. They also tend to have tons of edible mushrooms.
spoiler
There is a really jarring sensation when you go from wet, cold, and cloudy to hot, dry, and sunny by taking a 5 minute bike ride down into a valley, like you just rode into another world.
Do you have a list of such more cities?
No, sorry. There's listicle articles you can google, or if there's an equatorial region with mountains, any city or town above a certain altitude is going to have little variation. Weatherspark.com can help investigate.
Thank you
