I've started watching a YouTube channel of a guy trying to handbuild a homestead in Alaska. I forget where he said he came from, but like you, it was somewhere without snow.
On a recent video, he recorded himself seeing what I think he said was the third snowfall he'd ever seen and the first with accumulation. It was nice to watch his clearly genuine joy and surprise.
Joy? I've gone to the snow as a kid and have chosen not to go as an adult. I consider myself a bit of a masochist but not that much
I've always loved the snow. I will admit that since it hurt me, I've preferred to enjoy it through a window or from a sheltered place rather than to be in it.
I moved several hundred miles across multiple states in part to be where there's sometimes snow. Shortly after I got here, I was chatting to a local and mentioned that fact; he responded something like "wow. Most people don't move to here for the weather."
edit: I have a bad habit of writing run-on sentences. Tried to fix one here.
It’s truly wonderful, as long as 0C isn’t painful for you.
I’m much better adapted to the cold, so it’s in no way painful (unless I were to pass out in it or try to build a snowman without gloves or something). For me, even German summers are so unpleasantly warm that I can’t eat enough calories without being fully nocturnal. People tend to have a temperature and humidity range that works well for them, and they only adapt to new environments slowly
