I enjoyed my erasmus life at Granada pretty much. The winter is mild, you can go for a ride wearing shorts, and then go for ski to the Sierra Nevada. Lovely ppl, free tapas per beers, churros, beautiful city, awsome junkfood(shawarma ftw), lots of nice trails. Since i've left we travel back year by year in february for a week or two for riding and enjoying ourselves. Gladly move to Andalucia, but the summertime might just cook me alive.

Switzerland was by a large margin the worst place I have been living, in spite of that I lived on the shore of lake Geneva with the Unesco wineyards literally in my back yard.
That was also the place where everybody lived behind walls in fear, snobbery was at full throttle, and egoism on a level I don't recall seing anywhere else.

Scandinavia you just have to tackle the right way (like most other places). Summers are for full speed ahead, getting all the stuff done that needs to be sorted over the year. Winters are for a cosy time with friends and family, getting nothing done, eating and drinking a lot.

The UK seems to me just like you describe it. You can pretty much pick your preferred climate, the rest is average or better. Much like Germany in fact, counting out the food in Germany is more to my liking, and the UK has no wineyards.

That's interesting. When I've been to Switzerland I've stayed with friends and we haven't seen that side of it. I can believe it though. It's definitely quite a conservative place socially.

The UK does have some vineyards but I think it's fair to say not very many. You can buy quite good sparkling white wine from the UK, but you can definitely get better wine and for cheaper from Northern France.

As for the food, our native food is not that exciting, but we have really good international food here. UK is one of the best places to get Indian food for example.

Not much better here.
Time to go to the Panhandle for a month or two, till it gets tolerable here again.

So foggy here lately and no snow. We're doing ski service and rent in the winter and it's getting as boring as servicing bikes. Need a trip. Even to France. Razz
