At the end of 2020 after enduring
<a href="https://didoesdigital.com/2020-timeline/"> months of some of the strictest lockdowns in the world</a>
in a two-bedroom apartment, fuelled by a love of warm weather, and opportunities
afforded by remote work I moved from Melbourne, Victoria in southern Australia
to the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.
</p>
<h2>Location</h2>
<p>
The Sunshine Coast is located a little over 1 hour north of the Queensland capital, Brisbane.
Its latitude is 26.6553°S, which corresponds to southern Florida if flipped to the northern
hemisphere.
</p>
<h2>Attractions</h2>

<p>
The area features a number of beachside locations as well
as rainforest, rivers, and mountains. Of particular note
are the Glass House Mountains, a series of volcanic plugs
that feature prominently in the hinterland (pictured above).
</p>
<h2>Climate</h2>
<p>
As the name implies the Sunshine Coast enjoys a warm, sunny
<a href="http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/averages/tables/cw_040861.shtml">sub-tropical climate</a>.
It is currently {{ season }}.
The average maximum temperature in {{ climate.month }} is
{{ climate.max|fixed(1) }}&deg;C,
and the average minimum is {{ climate.min|fixed(1) }}&deg;C.
