"The San Francisco Bay Area is my homeland, so you'd think it would start to feel same-old, same-old after all these years. But not so!" said Katie Tamony, Sunset editor-in-chief. "San Francisco continually surprises and delights me with its penchant for innovation in the realms of food, art, and green living. What's more, San Francisco manages to be very cosmopolitan without the pretentiousness of other big urban movers and shakers. But what I perhaps love the most about San Francisco is its ready access to tug-on-your-heartstrings, stunningly beautiful outdoors."
