For example, you might seek moderately warm weather year round, so you might spend winter in the Middle East, move north up the Mediterranean through spring, explore Western and Northern Europe through summer, then head back south through France and Spain in the autumn.

Try to avoid long haul travel - you can travel a fair distance over the year, but month-by-month steps shouldn't be more than a few hours by plane unless there's no alternative.

It's cheating to stay in places have similar weather year-round

Climates in California are not all alike. Are Eureka, Death Valley, Los Angeles and Truckee really the same climate? They are all within a day's drive of each other.

Well, sort of - they should be similar in different months. So Dubai has average highs in 24C in January and Stockholm has average highs of 23C in July, so they could both be part of this trip, even though they obviously have drastically different climates overall.

The tropical semi-arid climate of Santa Cruz de Tenerife!



Known in Spain as the eternal late Spring.

The summer is ok and not very hot but I can go 30 km away up the mountain and have a spring alike summer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Cr...Laguna#Climate

You don't understand the point of this thread.

Let me show you:

I'll put the treshold for the mean temp at 10C, but not over 11C.

January: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corfu#Climate
February: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porto#Climate
March: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rome#Climate
April: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poitiers#Climate
May: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oslo#Climate
June: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narvik#Climate
July: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reykjav%C3%ADk#Climate
August: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reykjav%C3%ADk#Climate
September: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turku#Climate
October: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_Fenton
November: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bordeaux
December: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porto#Climate

There. Living in these locations you have practically the same temperatures and rather uniform rainfall all year. All within Europe and the longest flight is from Corfu to Porto.

Brian B's Climate Blog: 70°F Road Trip

Cambium already posted this map a while ago(can't remember which thread exactly), but it's appropriate for this thread to reappear
However, if someone really follows the path start of this year... you'd get an unexpected summery condition of 93°F(34°C) in McAllen, TX LOL

In the US, you could spend springtime in Mobile, summers in Miami, fall somewhere in SE Alaska, say Ketchikan, and winter in Forks, Washington. Should guarantee a consistently damp environment.
