I live in New York City...in the borough of Queens, to be exact. It's different here than living in "the city" (Manhattan) and I love it. I was born and raised in Queens and am a total Queens gurl (there can be a bit of rivalry between the boroughs).

Queens is one of the most ethnically diverse places on the planet and I love the people, the culture, the food, and the way each neighborhood feels. People actually live here, plant roots here, and I really enjoy that. Also, living in one of the "outer boroughs" is a lot cheaper than living in the city.

I like living where there's not a lot of action and I know that if I want action, it's only a short distance away. Living in New York on the whole is pretty great. There's no other place in the country (except, maybe, San Francisco or DC) that I would rather live. There's tons of stuff to do here at all times of the day or night. Now I only wish I could get out of my apartment and experience some of them! smile.gif

2. You will be presented with lessons.
3. There are no mistakes, only lessons.
4. Lesson are repeated until learned.
5. Learning does not end.
6. "There" is no better than "here".
7. Others are only mirrors of you.
8. What you make of your life is up to you.
9. All the answers lie inside of you.
10. You will forget all of this at birth.

I live in San Francisco, California. I'm a city girl at heart and love the diversity and cultural opportunities that SF has to offer. We have all the things that a big city like New York or Chicago have to offer but on a much more managable scale. The city is 7 by 7 miles or as we say, 49 square miles of paradise surrounded by the United States. Attitudes are very liberal and accepting of different types of people. I'm originally from LA but SF is my home and where I expect to spend the rest of my days...hopefully in a bigger apartment! dry.gif

I live in New Orleans, Louisiana. Other than the crime, which is horrendous in some areas, it's a great place to live. There's always something to do, and the city's always alive and kicking. Hurricane Katrina knocked us down for a while, but we are bouncing back! There's just a magic to the city that keeps you drawn to her. You'd have to visit to understand.

Northern Alberta, Canada.

We have all 4 seasons....but mostly we have snow. Lots and lots of snow. And -35 degrees celsius. Last year we had snow on the ground for 9 months. But I wouldn't give it up for the world. The summer is glorious and the scenery and outdoors are to die for. And white isn't a bad colour is it?



What a coincidence, I live in Central Alberta. I wasn't sure if I would find many Canadians on here, why, I don't know....lol...I am not "crazy" enough to think I am the only depressed person here....one of MANY I am sure.

Florence, Italy.

Plus: beautiful, you can't help but fall in love with the city and its food.
Minus: So many tourists, the inhabitants have no tolerance for foreigners.

Originally from Canada, though.

South central Pennsylvania -
+ We get all 4 seasons, lots of history to study

I'm in southeast/south central PA too. Not really far south but I've never heard of PA divided into more than 3 parts E-W and 2 parts N-S so I still fall into the south section. :)

I like that we get all 4 seasons as long as winter isn't too cold and there's not snow all the time.

I don't like cities either. Philly is not too far and I occasionally consider jobs there but in reality I don't think I could ever be paid enough to live there.

I live in North Central Florida. Upside, is we don't get many hurricanes. Downside, is that the summers are way too long, hot, and humid. I live in a boring University town, and don't get to the beach as much as I like to. It's nice to get away from the snowy winters of Northeastern Pennsylvania, where I lived, originally.

I live in Alaska. My opinion is really mixed.

Summer:
Good - Not Cold
Bad - Too bright

Winter:
Good - Dark
Bad - Too cold.

But atleast the state pays me money each year just for living here.
