Would you uproot your life, leaving behind your family, your job etc if you dont like the weather in a country.

(Obviously theres always more than one advantage of moving someplace but to build a life somewhere, would weather be top 3 factors in choosing where to live).

    I absolutely would. If it were a realistic option I’d mine my family to somewhere like Scotland, Iceland, Norway or Canada to get away from the unpleasantly hot summers we have here (relatively speaking - most people would probably not find it that hot.)

    On the other hand, I’m pretty sure my wife would happily move to the Mediterranean for more heat…

        Well, of course! It’s a good way to escape the heat - as long as you don’t go too deep.

      I’m on your boat. I used to get on fairly well with the british climate but as it’s changing I do fancy going north. The issue for me would be the short daytime hours. I go to northern europe in winter quite a bit cause it’s cheap then, but the 4 hours of daylight thing was hard.

      I did go to Iceland in the summer once, no night at all, it was brilliant for my mood.
