Where would you like to live?

[MarkC]

Of places you've actually been, which would you most like to call home?

My first reaction is Japan: beautiful women, hot springs, etc...
But if I think about it, I think I like Prince Edward Island the best.

There is a place in the San Luis Valley of Colorado-a very unusual place. With friendly people and nice views. With Buddhist temples and Indian temples and incredible mountains and an easy way of life. I just might pick that place.

Or maybe it would be hard to pick just one place and several places would really be better.

 

[sxg6]

Nova Scotia or New Brunswick. I can't decide.

Vancouver Island ... I think. Born and raised on Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland (Greater Vancouver) just seems like a place I live and not home. Although it has a lot to offer.

I'd like to live back home in SoCal, from the years after WWII to maybe the late 60s, early 70s, before the massive influx of people created permanent problems. I'd have a primary house in Corona Del Mar (Orange Co/Newport Beach area) with a second home in the mountains around Lake Arrowhead.

Flagstaff, AZ, Sedona, AZ, Mammoth Lakes, CA, Lake Tahoe, CA are all on my short list of places I'd want to live and call home forever.

Currently in Japan, gotta be the right color to call this place home. Too many xenophobes where I live. But the city I live in is home to where a rather violent shogunate occurred.I wouldn’t mind living in Taiwan or Mainland China for a while to pick up some Mandarin Chinese. I think that English, Japanese, and Chinese would be good for just about any business I wanted to get into. But to live till the end, Sydney, out towards Macquarie, or NZ, probably anywhere, anyplace that allows you to go grocery shopping barefoot is okay by me.

I'd like to live on my private island.

Not quite sure, since I don't know Jessica Alba's address.

used to want to be Daylesford in Victoria, which was prolly my favourite place on Earth. Then it became trendy, and now is full of DINKs (with no possibility of the K part ever occuring) and coffee shops.

Now I'd like 50 to 100 acres, maybe around here somewhere, with a wooded hill on the south side, and a plain on the North. An Earthsip, and a swimming pond, a smokehouse, and a root/curing cellar, with a few pigs, sheep and cows and a huge vegetable garden and mini orchard...would certainly limit my time on BITOG.

Here or maybe a small village in Cornwall/Devon/Cotswolds in U.K or a village in Provence France. That would about cover it.

I'd like to live above Cooter's Garage and work on the General Lee. Maybe Daisy too..

 

[TallPaul]

I've always wanted to live in Colorado. Far from Denver/Fort Collins/Boulder though. Colorado Springs area would be nice, perhaps one of the larger cities in the mountains, such as Grand Junction.

I'm blessed, I live where I like, in TN. Beautiful countryside, polite people, long summers, no state taxes, good roads, GREAT schools, lotsa fests around here, great music for free (or nearly free), low real estate taxes, and high speed internet.

Only thing better would be Hawaii.

 

[Patman]

I've never actually been there, but my entire life I've always dreamed of living in Southern California. Beverly Hills would be sweet!

 

[Benzadmiral]

First choice: Santa Fe, NM. Mountains, cool nights, thin dry air, snow in the winter, the smell of pinon woodsmoke, breakfast with red and green chile (what the locals call "Christmas") . . . (must search Travelocity for next plane out of here. . . .)

Second choice: Any place high and dry and clear, with four seasons and not too many people (yet, anyway).

 

[farrarfan1]

Austin,Texas. For the music and BBQ.

Having lived in the Midwest (Iowa) for the first part of my life then moving out to California for awhile ... I wouldn't mind living in the Midwest again - however, Colorado has some crazy beautiful places up in the mountains that I drove through on my way to Iowa from California. I wouldn't mind living there. The 85 octane would get a little getting used to though.

 

[Sparkman]

I'm currently quite partial to 14882.

 

[CivicFan]

Barbados: good food, good rum, good people, great weather and clean sea.
My second choice would be Glendale - a suburb of LA.
