Hi,

Just wanted to share that last time I came over to visit I was fed up with not being able to get around easily. (CA Bay area). It will be a while till I get my drivers licence, and now we are here properly there is school to sort out etc. Anyways, I bought a couple of folding bike yesterday. Older daughter had one already. They are fantastic fun. East to get to the BART and they go on the bus etc. 11 year old can fold it easy too. We have been out and about exploring the area and the weather is great for cycling just now.

So my top tip for adapting is buy a bike ! Makes all the difference when you can put the washing on and head off to have some fun outdoors. Exercise keeps you cheery too.

Wonderful idea! Sounds like you're having fun! Nice that you're living in an area where the weather is cooperative as well. :lol:

I bought my wife a bicycle the very first week she was here in this country. A bicycle was her main mode of transportation in China. Fortunately, we live in a very bicycle friendly area with bicycle paths along side all the major roads.
