Big city, bright lights, cool, cool fog. San Francisco is a pretty amazing place to be. Sure, the fog rolls in at 5:00 pm and leaves you wondering whether you somehow teleported to Sweden, and sure rents are outrageously high, but the city is hands down one of the most beautiful in the world, and it has so many restaurants/museums/bars/parks/shops/sights/hikes/clubs/events that you can really never get bored. For many San Franciscans, all the things to do justify rents that routinely top $2,000/mo.
