My genes are British (well, mostly English and Norman before that) and Eastern European, so yes, I agree with this. Unfortunately, Boston gets both moderate cold (fine, except for when there is excessive snow) and heat. (On the other hand, Minnesota got more extreme cold, and also heat.)
Swimming in natural water sounds lovely! It's one of the things I loved as a child (we used to go out to a small cottage in Michigan with a lovely lake: I am weird about ocean swimming, and New England lakes often come with enough plant growth to make me not want to swim in them, but the right lake, mmmm.)
