Trying to escape New York’s heat, I took a flight to San Francisco wishing I could find some fresh air, sea views and good food. And indeed I found what I was looking for! The San Francisco weather is ideal at this time of the year, not too cold, not too warm, the perfect balance to climb 80-degree steep hills all day long!
Known as “the City by the Bay”, San Francisco is arguably the most cosmopolitan and bohemian city in America. It is also one of the most beautiful, with its pretty houses and hilly streets providing beautiful views of the bay.
In the ’60s, San Francisco was known for its hippie counterculture; in the ’90s, it was the dot-com boom; more recently, it was the ripening of the Bay Area food movement (for our greatest happiness).
