Here in Padova, the flowers are blooming, everything is breaking out in green, it is 25C, and I went for a drink in the piazza with nothing but a short-sleeved shirt this evening. Yellowknife like a fascinating place, but one I'd rather read about or, at most, visit, rather than live in. Good luck though:-)
Thanks! For sure, the weather isn't for everyone. We /do/ get great summer weather (it'll be over 20C before the end of May), but it's a short season. Padova sounds gorgeous!
(Just a Manly-Man-o'-the-North note: I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt today. We bust out the summer clothes at anything above 5C.) :)
It took me some getting used to. I've been here 14 months now, and I did get a little lethargic at the beginning of the dark, dark winter months. And slightly manic in the all-sun summer light. But I adapted pretty quickly.
