Yes, that’s a good idea. It’s dry, but nice. Can get 45 Celsius there in the summer.
I was just writing about our plight because we both live in the same city. I love the suggestions of travelling locally but I don’t think people quite understand why you and I need warmth and sun in the winter. When the sun comes up at 830 am and sets at 4 pm in the winter, it gets depressing. Yes, the chinooks help (warm winds from the Rockies) but they are up and down. The month or more of minus 20 ain’t no fun either. Oosyoos would help a bit but the sun sets there at 5 pm in December too and laying on the beach in winter is out.
bathing suit in Oosoyoos in December? No thanks. Only polar bears need apply.
Also, taking a road trip in Canada in the winter can be dicey. Roads close often on the highways when we have avalanche risks or heavy snowfalls. The mountains are especially dicey and unpredictable. Travelling south is up and down. We can’t land cross between Canada and the US yet and the interstates in the Northern US can become nightmares and close down too.
Also, I think some may misunderstand that Canada has no tropics. They are all international. Perhaps, I should buy a house in Miami like
@Panina (and she has super taste) and just book last minute flights when the airlines are a green light. If the borders close, that’s ok, I got a house with a permanent booking. I can just wait until they open again. I’m semi retired anyway.
I never thought of buying a place as I love to roam but this whole thing has made me reconsider that. That way, Covid can go up and down all it wants. I can just stay put.
