Lived in SF for 10 years. We were always deeply offended when the sun was visible for more than two days in a row and the temperature got to 80. “@#$&*@, if we’d wanted hot weather, we’d be living in LA.”

Lol. You sure are picky. My husband and I lived in Saudi Arabia for five years....for money. People moan and groan about "hot" weather here. You don't KNOW hot weather. This time of the year, July, it was 117 degrees with 95% humidity in the KSA...Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

However, after two years there we were able to buy a nice 3-bedroom house in a nice part of San Francisco and pay it off in nine years. It was worth it.

Also we traveled when we were over there--India, China, Egypt, Bahrain, Syria, etc. It was the adventure of a lifetime for my husband and me.
We also made friends over there, Americans, and GOOD friends. I'm still friends with one lady...after 35 years.
