What country other than your own would you most like to live in?
(Please specify your country if not the United States.)
The answers (in order recieved):
The Bahamas. Ya can't cheat death, but you can
at least avoid taxes...
Mexico
Singapore.......it's clean, capitalist, and if you spit on the
sidewalk they beat you with a bamboo cane until all the spit is knocked
out of
you!
Oooh, a tough one. Maybe Australia or Great Britain, because they
speak english. (No french, like those damn canadians.) Or, perhaps
Germany,
it's a beautiful place. But neither of these countries are as gun friendly
as
the US. God Bless America.
Probably Australia or New Zealand, although I haven't yet been to
either (something I hope to remedy in the near future). I also looove
France
(which I have been to, 4 times). Holland is also very groovy. And the UK
has
its charms.
Hrm...I'd like to live in England, so that I wouldn't have to learn
another language.
Canada. Good hockey but not too far away to see American football
I currently live in Israel. If I had to leave Israel, then I would
prefer to either live in the US or Canada.
I'll move to Antwerp, Belgium in february, and I think there are lots
of good reasons to live there: great beer, great chocolate, great fries,
friendly people, cheap housing, interesting cineastic and music scene...
but
probably I won't even give it that much thought, once I am there. That's
at
least what happend when I moved from Germany (home country) to the
Netherlands
and took extremely little advantage of the nice things they offer here
(vla,
hagelslag, and marihuana).
I also spent a year in Fremont, California long time ago. Ok, ok, nice
wheather, people more outgoing than in Germany ... but apart from getting
there
and going home it was certainly the least eventfull year in my life.
Somewhere in the UK Ireland, Scotland, England, Wales. The beer is
SOOOOOO much better there.
Or LA...that counts as another country, right?
Would also consider Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Australia. Maybe Italy
(re:
the movie Roman Holiday).
I guess I just want to go back to my Motherland(s).
Austrailia. I savvy the lingo, the climate is nice and the beer
doesn't suck.
Austrailia. Due to the size and diverse enviroments. Not to
mention the beaches.
Freedonia
new zealand. most beautiful place on the earth.
the netherlands -- i have a windmill there. kathyrn and i are going
to live there and do all kinds of legal dutch things.
Sometimes I think, romantically, I'd like to
live somewhere like Tibet, or at Macchu Pichu
in Peru. But, really, I'd need more of the
language and creature comforts we Americans are
used to. So, sometimes, I think maybe Australia,
or Scotland... but Canada is really the closest
and best, because, in truth, there's no place like
home. And the good old USofA is my home... so...
forced to live somewhere else, I'd have to pick
Canada. Maybe not too adventuresome, but there it
is, 'ey, hoser?!
Canada. because I can.
Australia...just because
Holland
Switzerland. Neutrality and excellent chocolate.
Switzerland, specifically Geneva--what can I say, I'm neutral!
Hmmm... probably Australia for the beaches, warm
weather, exotic animals, sexy men with Australian
accents... What's not to love??
I think Australia would be awfully tempting. The
sparseness. The geography. The dreadfully fatal
fauna -- OK, maybe not....
Mexico. Cuz I can sneak myself back into the US real easy if I dont
like it.
Greece, they just had a five bedroom villa on sale for $52,000 us
dollars. Currently living in the San Francisco Bay Area, I have no hope
of
finding a five bedroom place for less than $520,000.
Holland, Germany, Canada maybe... I love my country, but I'm scared
to death of it's government, I want outta the Good ol' Goin' straight down
the
drain U.S. of A.
England. It's rainy there (I like rain), and the accents are totally
sexy.
My answer:
If language was not an issue, probably Austria. I love the mountains, the
food, the football and the women. But my ability to speak anything other
than English being what it is, probably Canada. Good hockey, some
baseball and clean air all appeal to me.
