You're a lucky lady.
I've been fortunate to visit some lovely parts of the world, many of which are wonderful for a holiday, but if I could choose any one of them as somewhere to live, I'd choose the San Diego area.
If I won the lottery (unlikely as I don't play), I could be more specific. I'd buy a house near my friends high up on Soledad at La Jolla, with a magnicent view over the Pacific - and reregister as
Flying Lawyer (Retired).

PS: I assume Germany has some attraction.
