South of SF?

Are you interested seeing what is south of here? How far south? This is a very large state. South of here along the coast are Santa Cruz, Monterey, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles and San Diego. All offer very different experiences. I like them all for very different reasons. Perhaps if you could let me know what you are looking for in terms of experiences and living accomodations, I could help you narrow these choices down. Also, for your information, I love the Eastern Part of California with the mountains, lakes and rivers.
