  1. Well defined appraisal of SF...unique place...almost enchanting. I bet some of those folk who go there are similar to the G;Glastonbury type...not exactly the same...but with ideas of change...ideals...and these infuse with existing bubbles of people's lives...and their ways of living...almost like an ever simmering melting out...something a little different being constantly added...infusing the whole with small and sometimes big changes...amidst tussles between cultures...then some micro communities...steady eddies...resilient, with little change...reflected in the sea weather with its steadfast winds, tides, and sea air and mists...but from time to time...storms and unprecedented acts of nature. Maybe SF has always been some kind of hub...where cultures and ideas can seek change whereas other cities could not allow them to grapple with the mainstream ideas...so much of it is always in flux...illuminating the micro-neighbourhoods that are not dissimilar to the pebbles on the beech...much more resistant to change...a REAL MIX. I wonder if the spirit senses it needs to go WEST to find wisdom...at one time it was the EAST??????

  2.  @jimmyyounger618  As the video highlighted...the essence of the coast and a vast ocean and seas mists and winds...mixing with some of the extremes of human wave forms...from hippies, high tech, fashion designers...flower designers. It feels like a place that for some is a last chance saloon on earth to find some kind of utopia...so as though there is an underlying seeking and longing there...which mixes with folk who settled there long ago and who live in a mundane way...or the super rich...who fill their gardens with all kinds of weird things...I bet some go for the sea and coastal vibes too...a real mix...that at times feels surreal...where one can get lost in those mists if not careful...maybe better to find a place where one can become centred...in nature...with animals...far from the madding crowd. In the UK many London folk and others seem to fall towards the SW...even some come up from Cornwall which has issues like SF...2nd homes driving locals out of their towns due to big house price increases...so Plymouth is espeically home to waifs and strays from London, Cornwall and rural villages...and up the line...meaning usually northern cities...most are former drug addicts or still practising...but may stop here. It's like they need that change of geography to feel right. The importance of PLACE cannot be underestimated...one man's home is another's slum.
