^^ Greetings everyone. I do believe that there exists a lovely member who lives approximately five miles (when travelling upon happy roads) from my home.

Belgium?


The Netherlands, but closer in terms of time to Belgium than to the political capital in The Hague. Fifteen minutes south of my house, people start speaking with different accents, and 45 minutes from my house, they have Belgian accents. A few more hours and they speak French.

I'm not too far away from ShamanicExp and DMS20 (guy with the Santeria skull-looking avatar) based on what their location reads on their post profiles. Anyone else in OC/LA area I'm missing, and what are thoughts on a regular meeting up locally like every week or so? /pitch



I'm in the "greater LA area", by what some people consider it. But it's a huge area; about 140 miles north to south, and 60 miles east to west. Bigger than some European countries!

I never paid attention to the location of any other members, so I might be right near one of us. Mostly I'm here in SoCal now (Hwy 118 near Hwy 34; which is 10 miles west of Simi Valley or 4 miles north of Camarillo, or 60 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles), but still have the house in Dallas (near Frankford & N Tollway in N. Dallas/Collin County).

I have an uncle who lives in Ventura and has a few special interests but doesn't consider himself an aspie, there is still a lot of farming in places like Oxnard. I grew up in the Inland Empire but I'm more connected to Orange and LA counties these days

I know of another member who originates from Taiwan, but I'm not sure if she's currently there or if she's still here in Australia.

Nearly everybody I enjoyed talking to, and reading their posts, has left WP, and none of them have been active for years.

Take it you mean Melbourne. That makes me closer than Taiwan at ~900KM away in Sydney
