Come to Maine if you live in the US. You’ll get your fill of winter really quick. A lot of people leave after their first winter here because it’s too much and far too expensive to have to burn kerosine for 6 months.

Good luck friend! I’ll give you a fair warning rent is insane here and unless you bring a remote wage you’ll likely be traveling an hour or more for work. The best jobs are in southern maine but within 30 miles of where I live you’re looking at paying at least 1800 a month for a one bedroom. If you can afford to live in the city you probably won’t have to deal with all of the snow removal.

I live in Canada today, and used to live in Sweden. I’m perfectly fine with winter and heating the house, dressing for it, etc. I’ll compromise my stance by saying early spring is nice, but man do I hate summer heat and humidity. And don’t get me started on mosquitoes and other summer bugs.

I can agree with that. I can’t stand the black flies in the summer and theres no ticks in winter.
