[d]
- Will come if it is Istanbul
- Yosemite climbing trip? 👀
- [AP] @David Chee I can organize a Yosemite climbing trip once the snow melts in late spring! I’d also be very happy to hike and camp in the snow, but I know that’s not everyone’s idea of fun.
- Otherwise, will just go to SF in mid Jan - March
- Japan is very high on my list of places to go, but I would want to be full vacay mode and not working when there haha
- [AP] Could always stay extra days on your own afterward

- Generally down for anything! Really strong preference for doing something in January or February rather than waiting.

Tokyo weather

Istanbul weather

January seems like an unusually bad time to visit Istanbul or Tokyo.
- [d] Honestly, Istanbul is still fine to visit in Jan. But it will be cold and slightly wetter than SF.
-
Airfare to Tokyo is half the cost of Istanbul $500 versus $1,000
