The Summer of Love, sourdough bread and steep hills: these are just a few things that make San Francisco stand out. Despite being home to fewer than a million people, the “City by the Bay” has a global reputation, one which has drawn visitors from across the world for centuries.
You’ll find yourself among locals who are a mixture of techies and yuppies, artists and activists, as well as tourists donning Alcatraz sweatshirts because they expected Los Angeles weather. Conversations about tech and social innovation are backdropped by the good – such as Victorian architecture – and the bad – broken car glass from break-ins. But all of it stimulates the creative spirit that defines San Francisco.
