My condolences, that sucks!

And yes spring and autumn both are awesome. Nothing better than a clear, crisp autumn day.

Let me tell you about these magical lands called "equatorial mountain" climates.

See, you go to a place that's hot year round, then go 1-2km directly upwards, and you get 365 days of spring weather, only variation being how much precipitation you get.

Bogota, Medellin, Da Lat, Kunming, all amazing weather year round. They also tend to have tons of edible mushrooms.

There is a really jarring sensation when you go from wet, cold, and cloudy to hot, dry, and sunny by taking a 5 minute bike ride down into a valley, like you just rode into another world.
