People: If you're gay........
  • Tip Rating:
  • THE place to go for shopping, dining, and nightlife is the Hillcrest area of SD. Specifically University Avenue. If you like a gay male meat market, then Hamburger Mary's on University is not to be missed. Even if you are staight, this neighborhood is so diverse and fun!!

    I never forget VT-ers from San Diego I met. First of all a very, very nice VT-er Linda (lmkluque) who picked us up from Los Angeles Airport (hmm... what we would do if not?) , gave us a lot of very helpful suggestions/advices, showed us around San Diego and not only, picked us up with her car to our welcoming VT meeting in Oceanside (GREAT!!!), helped us to find a car to rent, showed us what is really good food :-) and many, many more. BIG THANK YOU Linda and... welcome to Poland. I met Vicki (expresso) from San Diego on 12th April in Oceanside VT meeting - wow, we were crazy talking a lot, I hope to meet her again here or there now :-).

    Yes, they do. But maybe at least a little not so often than in many European countries - am I wrong? Anyway, it's no wonder, they have (less expensive) public phones everywhere (maybe except residential areas).

    People: Are you inspired?
  • Tip Rating:
  • I met this painter just by the Lake of the Flowers in Balboa Park. He looked Spanish/Mexican and was busy painting Spanish architecture, talking with somebody by a cell phone but despite this he said hello to us at the same time :-). Btw do you like his picture? Hmm...

    People: Get fit
  • Tip Rating:
  • San Diego is a wonderfully relaxed place. People are really into fitness, but not in a phony way like in Los Angeles (sorry, LA). There's just a cultural emphasis on good health. You'll notice it when you go to the beach and when you look at a menu. Like everywhere in SoCal, no smoking in public buildings.

  • Tip Rating:
  • People are generally rude in San Diego. When they find out that you don't live there they act pretty suspicious and then will ignore you.

    People: Almost everyone in San Diego...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Almost everyone in San Diego is polite and helpful. Since San Diego is 30 miles away from Tijuana, Mexico, you will find people from Mexico here and they are very polite and nice. Above all, San Diego is generally a 'laid-back' sort of city.

    People: Halloween at GLD
    Every year we go to the gaslamp district for halloween. Actually, the weekend before. There are literally THOUSANDS of people all ages dresssed up and walking the streets. Gaslamp is filled with restaurants/bars/lounges etc. This is a great time of year for people watching from the outside patios of the restaurants
