Given the time at which you're commenting on this article, I'm guessing you're still here? You've made it longer than I'm going to. Coming up on year 4 and really starting to feel like yeah, I'm over it.

Some dude on an Nmax almost ran me and my dog over yesterday for absolutely no reason, he could have driven to the other side of the road. Extremely typical, and getting old.

I am, it’s just the air pollution that gets annoying for me, but that will pass with the return of blistering weather. I lived for 10 years in Europe before this and after that I was ready to never sit in the cold again!!

It’s not unusual to get a bit of SEA fatigue, I find the best cure is a trip home to replenish the gratefulness of all the things you don’t miss there!

Haha true enough... After two months in the states I'm usually ready to come back here. I know exactly what you mean with the cold. I grew up somewhere that's cold AF with lots of snow and I loathed it. I damn well appreciate wearing flip flops 365 days a year.
