That's what confuses me with his choice of Vancouver

Gotta love Mongolia's climate!

Tucson by miles just by the awesome sunshine stats alone even if the summers are a bit hot.

Tucson in the winter, Vancouver in the summer. Duh.

Wilko’s, what’s the term they use nowadays? “special”. He gives Vostok an A and Atlanta an F.

Vostok is an F and Atlanta, GA is a D. Vostok has a disgusting climate with polar night all winter. At least Atlanta has good weather most of the year

Not even penguins give Vostok an A (apparently not Wilko either). Anyway, few Brits have ever even experienced a -5°C high like today was here. Therefore, I guess some of them think they're a lot more resilient than they are. I'm sort of qualified to guess what a Mongolian climate is like since I've experienced -17°C daytime highs here at home and since I have there's no chance I'd glamorize them because "there's sun"

I have experienced a -8°C high in 2010 here

Not bad. Still, that's nowhere near a month with -15°C highs and -25°C lows that the Mongolians have to deal with

But that's with abundant sunshine, so I could cope

Vancouver for me.

Tucson is way to dry and way too hot. While Vancouver has problems with it, one thing I like about Vancouver is how moist it is.
