May I ask you exactly why you want to live in America? Just out of pure interest.

I know you didn't ask me, but I want to travel, ( for several months if I had the money ), in the USA, and it's partly because I have seen it so much in films I'd like to see it in the flesh, and partly because it seems like such a strange/alien/bizarre sort of place. :wink:

UK for most of my life, France (3 x three months in Bourges, three months in Montpellier, one month near Tours), China (Beijing), Qatar (Doha).

The furthest I've ever lived from where I do now, is about 8 miles away. And that was only for 2 years. I'm a "lifer" here in PA. :lol:

New Zealand (where I was born) and Australia (where I've spent most of my life).

It's a nice place to visit, but I'd think twice before moving there.

I've never lived outside the UK. The most exotic place I've lived is Wales! :(

Good old Britain, a***hole of the world. Yorkshire is, anyway.

When I'm 16 I'm leaving, never to return to British soil as long as I live. I don't even want to live in one place, I want to live in lots of places. I'm not that bothered if I'm totally poor either, as long as I'm in nice places.

I'm going to Rome first. It'd be a right bummer if I died without ever having lived in Rome.

As a child, I lived in Ethiopia. Came to the states as a pre-teen and have lived here ever since.
Life is good here...don't let ANYONE tell you different! We started out in a creepy neighborhood though but with hard work, careful guarding of our nestegg, and keeping to ourselves, we moved on to greener pastures.

I've only lived in the US. Just Oregon and Washington State. Washington is where I live now where all the cows are. Cow population 1 million. Human population, you. Wait! I'm not a human! Does it count aliens? (I'm too smart to be human, humans have an average IQ of about 10 in my experience). Oh my! Look at their driving skills and brain skills!
