If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be, and why aren't you there already?

Traveled all over the world and enjoyed the experience, however there is no place like home. West Virginia! OF course that is more about family and beautiful scenery. It would be nicer if people were a little more open minded and less ignorant. Politics, religion........

I'd wanna live over there but I'm still over here. Know what I'm sayin when I'm sayin what I'm sayin?

Pittsburgh, PA, where I live currently. For the culture (especially in the performing arts), the history and scenery, the affordable cost of living, & the friendly people!

right where I live now, Vancouver Island Canada. I've travelled a lot, but I love where I live and really don't want to ever leave here.

I can sure understand that. Perfect climate, lots of wildlife, beautiful scenery, you do have all the best!

I've been thinking of an answer, but I'm stumped. Maui? Switzerland? Amalfi coast?
Hmmmm..

My home in Ct and I am there now.

I don't have a place that I would like to live because I love traveling too much. I have lived all over the US and am moving to Okinawa, Japan for 3 years the end of this month. When I retire in 12 years, we'll see what happens. Maybe the panhandle of Florida if it is still there.

Somewhere with awesome scuba diving, mountain climbing, camping, backpacking, and a decent amount of non-Trump supporters.

So maybe Washington or Oregon here in the states, or maybe Argentina?

As for why I haven't? Reality. No money to go anywhere, and no job to support myself when I get there. But, there is always vacation time.

Perhaps vacation time , could include some job hunting ? Good luck !

Edinburgh Scotland, and because immigration is more difficult than you think

@Redcupcoffee most immigration is skills based - you have to meet certain criteria to qualify. With the whole brexit thing, it is hard to convince the UK that someone there couldn't fill a particular job. It would probably be easier to find a native citizen and get in via spouse visa

Florence, Italy is prone to bouts of nationalism, even back in 2009 when I was there. An aitheist in a city full of Churches, that level of irony usually requires a monkey's paw. The city is breathtaking, but my Italian is Rusty if not complete shit, and there would be moths flying from my pockets if these pants had pockets.

@Redcupcoffee a few blocks from the Duomo is the oldest Art supply shop in Europe, Zecchi, they still use the old techniques for making their supplies, even a full on apothecary. What we could budget to afford we coveted when we got back to the states. I love the artists who set up in the Piazza.

I have lived and traveled around the world and this country.I have landed in the best spot I have seen. The San Juan islands (Washington) have a temperate climate, beautiful nature, strong community and progressive politics.

There are so many wonderful places, I could never decide. In my dream world, I would rotate between 4-6 different locations....but work and finances don't allow such frivolity.

I have traveled to about 30 countries....

I love Sweden but it is too dark. I need sunlight .

I love tuscany italy. I am not sure I can learn italian and my children live in the us. My compromise is to rent a flat in tuscany for three months. Considering that.

@redcupcoffee where would you live?

0

Seattle and because I have no money

1

Songkhla, Thailand, and I'm here already.

2

For me, it isn't where I live, it is who I live near. SamSam and Austin are less than 30 minutes away. I'm where I belong and where I want to be.

1

A bigger city where I could meet more people to aid in the search for that person that would be as excited about me as I them. I haven't moved because I have a son that is also my life and I couldn't imagine moving away from him as I share custody with his other mother.

I'd stay in Michigan...I grew up near Lansing and went to college in Grand Rapids so I'd be open to either Of course I'd LOVE to live in either Ann Arbor or Traverse City!

2

I'm already there I live 20 minutes from where I lived when I was twelve I love the Pacific Northwest and I could not imagine living anywhere else

1

Right here.
It's a great "home base".
Perfect for us to summer at, and great for traveling to the Caribbean in the winter.

I would prefer to live high up on a mountain and live a quiet monk like lifestyle away from worldly distractions. I don't because i have older family members to take care of.

I am quite happy right where I am! The Garden Spot of Pennsylvania.

@Redcupcoffee Medium sized city, surrounded by family farms, many Amish and Mennonite, but many not. Fresh produce all summer, a lively art and arts community downtown. I live on a dead end street, quieter than when I lived in the countryside. I can walk to a major grocery store, restaurants, my doctors office. I am minutes from two hospitals, sports complexes (I don’t go, but I could!), movie theaters. There are still real estate bargains to be found, beautiful old homes, well kept yard, huge trees, nice parks. I moved around a lot with my parents growing up, came back here my last two years of high school and stuck!

@Redcupcoffee Just read your profile. We have a very active LGBTQ community here. We had a Gay Pride festival on one of the streets downtown. I was manning the Planned Parenthood tent for a few hours. Lots of people strolling all day, and it was a very warm day. Thought I would throw that out there if you were shopping for a place to move! ?

@Redcupcoffee About 50 miles northwest of Philadelphia, easy train ride. Trains that stop here go to New York and once a day to Chicago. If you look on Google Map, we are about three hours from Washington, two and a half to Baltimore or Wilmington DE. Lowest unemployment in Pennsylvania. Millersville University, F & M College, Elizabethtown College. NJ, DEL, MD beaches not too far away. Several rail trails crisscross the county. Minor league baseball team. I can send you links to tourist and Chamber of Commerce links.

@Redcupcoffee OK, I sent you some links. And as our state motto says “You’ve got a Friend in Pennsylvania!” ?

Wherever I am right now. It is what I have.

Amor Fati.
