This is the dilemma that period. No one is wrong is a matter of preference. And there are valid arguments for both 'camps'. First, what about for those seeking the sun?
The motto is simple: go south. Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, or even further: they are places with pleasant temperatures, while temperatures at home will not increase the height of zero degrees. The advantage is that it avoids becoming pale as snow due to a lack of sunlight and heat. The sun also helps avoid the depression associated with lack of light which are very common from the fall.
The sun also helps the creation of vitamin E, makes us happier and releasing heavy knit sweaters and heavy gloves. If, cons, you like big mittens and sweaters knitted (or nerds, according to preference), you'd better enjoy winter for skiing or snowboarding.
But the skiing, is it really a ticket to the sun? Yes! We often see that people returning from skiing holidays, return more golden than the sun returning. The reason is simple: the sun is highest in the mountainous heights. In addition, snow white, reflecting the sun. Here is why one sees these funny shaped head with the glasses still appreciable.
But there is another reason for this phenomenon. Those who prefer the sun, think faster to put sunscreen while skiing or snowboarding pratiqueurs 'forgot' to smear sunscreen. We do not think easily in cold weather. Moreover, we think that too often when there are clouds, you do not burn in the sun. We can not repeat often enough: it is not true.
Anyway, it is likely that if you book a ticket for the winter holidays, the flight will take you to the sun, facing it hot or cold on your destination. Have fun!
