Hey, I can help with your home sickness.
It's brutal winter here for 8 months followed by a manic, hot four months of summer. No spring or fall. It takes two hours to get to anything that could reasonably be called nature. The people are great, but their main form of socializing is heavy drinking. It's cold? Let's drink about it. It's hot? Let's drink about it.
It's great, but no city is perfect.

- mikestew 8y agoWe don't have poisonous snakes or spiders where I live, and the bugs are few despite rarely getting below freezing. But it rains all the time in Seattle. And the volcanoes; third one that's blown up this week. Stay away, we have other things that will kill you beside bugs and reptiles.
