From the North, live in the South right now. It's decent, but I miss the fresh air and large parks. My favorite places would be Bidwell Park (one of the largest in the country), Fort Bragg, Eureka/Trinidad/Patricks Point State Park (filmed Jurassic Park 2 here, lols), and also Fern Valley if you're near the last few. Avoid Redding itself, but Shasta is pretty nice. Tahoe is better than Shasta, and Shasta is better than Lassen (unless you want to see a live volcano that can, gasp!!, make boiling, smelly sulfur pits).
The pacific beaches at Patricks and Fort Bragg are cold, but incredibly fucking beautiful during the summer, and have amazing seafood. Also both are near redwood forests, which are also amazing and a must to check out.
In any case, go north or go south. Do not go to the middle unless you're going to the Bay. San Fran is great for tourism...but there really isn't much else to suggest for there.
