I love summer, but this does kind of make sense. I live in Korea, where they have a long winter break (Christmas until March) from school. People here seem to love winter, which is usually absolutely frigid and miserable.

God I love autumn. Can chill by the lake with a picnic basket and wait for the stars to come out. Camping when it's pleasantly cool. Plus those fresh orange leaves, and the beetles in the firelight. Autumn is amazing.

“Hot take” - lol. Sorry, couldn’t help but giggle at the dad joke..

Depends a lot on the climate. I hated summer in Hungary with 3 months of 30-39°C days, now in Scotland, where it barely goes over 20°C for a couple weeks / year, I cherish every sunny day.

My wife works for the schools and still has summer off. I have two kids in high school and one in college. All summer off. I hate summer. I'm going snow camping the week after Christmas though. Without them.

Fall is peak, we just hated it because it meant we were back to school. By far the best weather and plenty of holidays.

...is it common for people in the northern hemisphere to not get time off school during winter?

Sunbelt here:

I legitimately loathe any temperature <23°. At 20° I’m too uncomfortable to be outside without layers. I’d prefer to do nearly everything outside if feasible, and really enjoy nature. I also hate rain during the colder months.

I’m legitimately glad that people have options, but I think the population growth of the southwest shows where people are partial to the weather 😝

I live on the Chesapeake Bay so I love Summer.

9 grey months a year, will make you miss the summer, then you you get 3 weeks of it if you're lucky, and then back to the monotone grey, it's not about love, it's about my human need to see other colours

September & October are my favorite months.

Winter is pretty good too.

Summer meh.

They all have their benefits and drawbacks. I only dislike mud season at the end of winter.
