If you could live anywhere in the world

Yes, Colorado is a very nice place to live. There is so much to do here.



You're supposed to be telling these fine folks what a horrible place Colorado is (to keep more people from moving here). But since she's a skydiver (and god knows we need more female skydivers here), maybe I'll cut you some slack. ;)



Excuse me, but didn't you move here from somewhere? Where was that again? Oh I remember now, Canada. See, everyone's got to come from somewhere.

And yes, we could use some more skydivers. Like it's not already hard enough to get on a load at a certain DZ. (oh no, did I just say that out loud?)

I use to live in Spain and I loved it! Great food, nice, layback people, good wine....

So, if I could live anywhere in the world I would pick Spain, Italy or Monte Carlo (very expensive, but nice)!!!;)

Well, I'll answer the question in my own little way.

You see, I have never really cared where I lived, and I still don't, geographically at least.

Where I live is not important (except certain parts of Nevada and Utah-I NEED to be around a DZ).

What is important is who I live around. Not with, just near. I need friends. Like minds. People whoare true individuals, not just "follow the crowd" lemmings.

That said, I live near very few of these people right now. Sad, but I'm not moving. Instead, I'll travel to meet more and more of them. Driving for a living has it's advantages....
It's your life, live it!

Mostly right here in Australia - like so many people who move here from overseas I have no plans what so ever to leave again. B| You have to experience it to understand.
If I had a lot of money, I would also have a nice little summer residence in either Northern Italy or the South of France. Sitting in the sunset with a bottle of local wine and enjoying the local food on summer nights....

Southern Africa - because it is the best Weather, lifestyle and REAL wildlife (not like here in poncy UK where we were told Wales had WILD sheep!)

otherwise Zurich - why cause like I like the ppl, food and its generally a cool place.

I completely agree that people make a place. The community dictates how much I enjoy any environment. (Oops! Does that make me a sheep??) If there aren't some really inquisitive freaks around I can get bored. That said, a lot of people seem to say Hawaii. Hmmm...

Okay, question for the masses. Except for those living in Colorado, a lot of oyu have described beatiful sounding places to live that are giving me happy daydreams. Why aren't you there? Specific stories/reasons, please.

I would go to Switzerland, right in the area around the Matterhorn. That is the most beautiful place I've ever been, and could you imagine the skydives?!?!?! B|

You asked for reason why - because as nice as my homeland was it is now royally f*cked up. Today Zimbabwe put the price of fuel up by 500% - and no that is not a typo! 6 yrs of a shrinking economy and chaos! For all ppl's bitching about it I actually don't mind the UK though.

***On a house boat



Mmmm -- can I come live with you? You'll need a crew, right?

Wendy W.



Most def... If we got a few more people, it could be a huge house boat (sometimes called a yacht) B| Ahh, to live in international waters all the time. Who's rules would we follow? our own of course!

There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.
