where to live

Victoria usually has two seasons, summer and rain. Spring and fall tend to merge. We "never" get a winter.
This year we got a winter


As a consequence, we are now having an "ugly" season. The flowers are just barely coming up, but the mud left from the floods and rain is still covering much of the ground.

So as I was out for a walk the other day, I was speculating on where would be an interesting place to live. I have never been up north. A place lijke Dawson Creek, or Yellowknife would be interesting. I understand there are some downsides, but it would be fun to live there for a couple of years anyway...

Or maybe I am just too romantic...
