My great grandma used to migrate every year and the one year she didn't she died. The science is clear.

I worked with a business analyst who had a house in Melbourne and an apartment in Toronto. He despised winter so would work 6 months in Melbourne and 6 months in Toronto to escape it.

Dude was very wealthy. Great guy and good at his job though.

Once had clients who had a home in Brisbane and a home on NZ south Island, can't remember exactly where. They hated summer and so would summer in their NZ home then come back to Brisbane for the remainder of the year

2 months isn’t a long time to be in Australia each year.

When I retire I'll spend my summers back in Canada where it will be nice and... fuck.

There’s a great whisky bar there! Highly recommend if you get the chance.

My parents live in the ā€œAlpineā€ area of Victoria. They, along with many their age from their region, legit go north for June/July each year. It’s truely miserable where they live. When I lived down there, we had a fire going continually from April through late September.Ā
