Where to go to overcome seasonal depression?
The month of January is almost coming to an end… Finally! Because yes, the first month of the year is considered the most depressing of all. And for good reason, with short days and absent sunshine, our morale is really at half mast. But if this is also your case, rest assured, you are not alone.
In fact, in France, 1 in 10 people are affected by seasonal depressive disorders. Yes, the lack of sun and light has significant consequences on our biological clock. We sleep less well, we are in a bad mood, we lack energy… And We especially lack vitamin D!
So, to stock up on this rare commodity, what could be better than a short weekend abroad ? The latter will allow us to visit a new city, take a little break from our daily lives, and take advantage of the sun’s rays to recharge our batteries. To help you choose your destination, we have listed 4 sunny cities all year round.
The city of Seville is hottest of the whole year in continental Europe. It is also among the sunniest cities on the continent with 340 hours of sunshine per year and an average annual temperature of 21 degrees. In February, temperatures rise to around 18 degrees (if not more). In the middle of the low season, it is the perfect time to discover the beauties of the city, without being confronted with crowds of tourists. We can peacefully visit the Spanish Steps, the Seville Cathedral, and the Maria Luisa Park. And we head towards Las Setas to admire a sublime sunset!
The month of February is punctuated by Valentine’s Day. Why not take the opportunity to escape to a romantic and sunny destination? With average afternoon temperatures of 15 degrees, Rome is a city perfect for a winter city trip. There are plenty of things to do and see so you never get bored: the Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Trevi Fountain… Not to mention the hundreds of restaurants serving exquisite dishes!
In Morocco, winter is particularly mild, with temperatures around 20 degrees. We take advantage of the low season for an exotic weekend in Marrakech. The perfect opportunity to visit the Medina, get lost in the Souk or discover the sublime Majorelle garden. The more adventurous can even enjoy a quad ride in the Agafay desert.
Lisbon is a city ideal for getting away for a few days. With sublime places like the Sé Catedral, the National Museum of Azujelo and picturesque neighborhoods like Alfama or Chiado… You will be amazed! Weather-wise, the sun is out with temperatures around 16 degrees. What to take advantage of a foretaste of spring that we are impatiently awaiting!
