I generally prefer living in cold weather. That's why I'm in the process of moving to Germany. I really dislike sweating, and wintertime helps control my allergies. I'm allergic to sunshine and pollen, and the summer heat isn't good for me. It's too clear. That's why I prefer snowy or rainy weather for my physical and mental health.
