Moving down to TV has been a great experience from the cold northeast. Some parts of upper Westchester County, in New York, had several inches of snow yesterday. I mentioned the snowfall to a friend today and the horrors of TV people having to wear a jacket today, when out and about. He replied, OH NO!!!!!! It's too early for snow, even up, here!
It's a chance to make new friends and relationships because "it takes time to grow old friends". I still have kept my friendships of 35 years plus, and enjoy many new friends.
If a person is somewhat outgoing, making friends is easy. You'll find that many people are good people and want to share their life experience, with like minded people. After all, we all have been around the block once or twice.
