Que faut-il apporter ?
Layers and Comfortable Shoes
San Francisco is in California, but not the warm part! A City of micro-climates you can move from one area of the City to another and experience a 10 degree temperature shift. So layers are recommended.
The City is only 47 sq miles, so you can cover a lot of ground in a single day. But only if you're wearing comfortable shoes! Go for function over fashion because "anything goes" in San Francisco!
Coutumes et culture
Managing the pan-handlers and homeless
Unfortunately, there are a lot of homeless in San Francisco, and the pandemic only added to the challenges. For the most part, you will be left alone. If asked for money, it's best to ignore or simply say "not today".
