if you could live anywhere where would it be? personally mine would be montana! u?

jerseydevil · 10-13-2002, 08:55 PM

I like New Jersey. I've lived in San Diego, California, Salem, West Virginia, Seymour, Indiana, Portland, Oregon and Chicago Illinois. I like central New Jersey the best.

When I was in high school I used to want to live in England. After I had gotten a chance to go twice there, I decided it wasn't for me.

I still like to travel around a lot though and experienve new places - just have no desire to live any place else.

Erawyn · 10-13-2002, 08:58 PM

New Zealand, or Vermont!

Moving around a lot is hard. But I have a cousin that lives in Asheville NC and my Aunt and Uncle live in Greensboro NC. We almost moved to Birmingham Alabama and Greenville South Carolina also.

galadriel88 · 10-13-2002, 10:22 PM

Well seeing as I have lived in the same house all my life (in a small town in AL), I haven't had the chance to experience living elsewhere, but of the places I have visited I would love to live in: North Carolina, Chico or San Fransisco CA, Nashville TN, and Chesterfield/Richmond VA. And I'd like to visit and possibly live in New York, England, Ireland (Republic of), New Zealand, Hawaii, or Chicago IL.

Alaska.

galadriel88 · 10-13-2002, 10:37 PM

Well, your so far south that you probably don't get a lot of snow ever, or just here and there. I all ready live in a reasonably cold climate. My weather is greatly effected by systems that move out of Canada and across Lake Erie. Snow and cold are pretty normal here, and I have here like you in Al, lived here all my life.

I hate hot weather.

BeardofPants · 10-13-2002, 10:58 PM

Wow. There's lots of places that I'd like to live in. New York, Tuscany, Geneva, San Fran... How could I ever decide on one place? I think once I get everything sorted out on this end, I'll be bunny hopping every where... trying to get a taste of everything.

Lizra · 10-13-2002, 10:58 PM

I'm with you on Alaska SGH. It's one of the very few places I'd like to visit. Someday, Ill save up for one of those cruises up the coast. A friend did a cruise to the FJords (?) in Norway or Sweden or some scandanavian area, and raved about it. I hate to be hot and sweaty and stuck inside the house cause you drip sweat and get bit by mosquitos. On our farm, winter is the best time to hike along the creek and explore, in the summer everything's grown over with waist high weeds. Yeah, Alaska!

***Khamûl*** · 10-13-2002, 11:03 PM

Why would I want to live anywhere but Alabama?

We hardly ever get snow. I can only remember about 4 or 5 times that it has snowed. I live in LA (Lower Alabama

), but I think North Alabama gets snow a little bit more often than we do.

If you hate hot weather SGH, don't come to Alabama. Just a couple of days ago the high temperature was about 90 or so. And during the summer the humidity is oppressive.

osszie · 10-13-2002, 11:10 PM

Ah, I love merry old England.........I think my permanent home will always be here

There are LOADS of places that I would like to spend extended time in tho', Russia, Prague, Greece, Kenya, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, China...........jeez be here all night listing them...........someone lend me the travel cash and I'll send you all postcards

jerseydevil · 10-13-2002, 11:19 PM

Khamûl - I love snow. Sledding and ice skating. I love the smell of the street venders roasting chestnuts and roasted peanuts in NYC.

But Spring and Fall are my favorite seasons and without the cold winter and hot summer - you can't really get those.

Osszie - I've always wanted to visit St Petersburg.

Okay so this thread was about where we wanted to live. But as i stated - I like NJ because so much is here. I'm an hour and half from the mountains for skiing, down the street from Princeton University, half hour from Great Adventure - the largest amusement park in the country with the largest drive through safari outside of Africa, an hour from the beach and boardwalks and an hour from New York and Phildelphia and about 2 hours from Atlantic City. Not much more I can ask for.

Anywhere?? Hmmm... well, since Lothlorien isn't technically real, I would have to say, Martinique. I had to do a project on it in French class two years ago... Beautiful.
