Exclude your own countryWell, he is illegal(spel.) imigrant, so for him USA are the best country on the world.

[cut]

no-one has chosen the US yet, except the crazy post whore who doesn realise you can't pick your own country.

As for me I'd live anywhere, with possible exception to the US (never felt comfortable there :( maybe things will change) top of my list of places to live would probably be Mumbai (Bombay).

I have a simmilar feeling. When I was on holiday last in the US, I dunno, I just had a feel of emptiness, maybe its just a small fish in a big pond kind of feeling, but it put me off a little :(.

The skiing in Vermont was excellent though woot .

Cuernavaca

[percell_086]

USA, possibly i'm gonna live there 3 years with my dad (work)

Percell

PS: don't pick Belgium, it's not a country to dream of

[Stavka]

I can see myself living in the US. Well, certain regions at least.

Otherwise UK, definitely.

I've been skiing in Vermont too, the last school trip I went on..

[intelligenzija]

best place? kamtchatka !

[Jack Mehoff]

OK, best state to live in America have to be Texas IMO.

Austin, Texas to be exact. Iowa sounds good too p-)

[Uncle Sam]

Out of all the States that I have been to...I would have to say North Carolina was the best, overall.

[cut]

out all the coutries in Britain I'd stick with England

[Stavka]

Im planning a trip to the US, when i got my degree and a tidy sum on my pocket.

Any recommendations apart from the standard tourist-tour? Ive seen most of the tourist-shiznit, but my lady hasn't, ergo i gotta do it all over again.

Oh, and shooting ranges pricings, what kind of sums are we talking about?

Head straight for New England. Best region in the States. If you come to Maine, I'd be happy to give you a tour of the Queen City.

No no.....Los Angeles and Orange County my friend. :D Sand, surf, history...AND It was 80 degrees here Christmas day! The only bad thing are all the illegal mexicans who can't speak a word of English. Other than that....it's pretty damn cool. Give me a call and I'll show ya around.

Illegal Mexicans? What about all the Canadians who come into the State through the unprotected borders? ;)

[Stavka]

Hehe, thats awfully kind of you all, but my trip wont be for at least two, more likely three years.
Problem is its such a big country, lots to see, expensive trip and lodging, little time to do it in... One really has to prioritize.

Last time I was in the US was some 16 years ago, I was 7 years old. Disneyland, Universal studios and so forth. Only problem is that at 7 years of age one really only cares about stuff that attracts a 7-year old. Such as "when do we stop to pee", "can I have another Coke", and "But I wanna live at Disneyland! I dont wanna go home!"

My father and little brother were in NYC last summer, flew over to check out some guitarstuff of some sorts. Guess where I was? You guessed it, in the hospital, working my ass off. :bash:

I'm not sure of the mountain names, can't remember them :oops: , but i know what trails I did when I was there, you can see them at http://www.killington.com/trails.html.

The trails I mostly used were the Great Northern, Bunny Buster, Snowshed Slope and a couple of others :).

[TriggerPuller]

Pattya Beach and Phuket Thailand
Puerto Gallera(private island) in the Phillipine Islands

As for the US Iam biased as Iam born,raised and still live on the beach in Los Angeles(Santa Monica) California.

The only place I ever enjoyed in Europe was Mallorca(palma),Spain.

Ever skied Sugarloaf? Give a shot next time you're Stateside.

[He219]

I'm going to have to back FallenAngel & TP. There are prettier places in the world, but California offers the whole schabang; the World's Fifth Largest Economy along with a diverse geographic and social composition.

Not to many other places you can take advantage of snow and surf within an hour's drive...

p-)

Phuket definately rocks, TP.

[DrunkenMaster]

bora bora is where its at

[Jack Mehoff]

I'm not a big fan of Calif eventhough I was born there. Liberal hippies and strict gun law in Calif turn me off.

Kurdistan or Sweden, same same, but different!

Portugal :hug:

[Flagg]

Austaralia(i dont care what Flagg talking)

But we've got better beer in NZ

Damn...not a single pothead who said 'AMSTERDAM!!!!!1111'. Have all of ya crackheads gone to drug rehab or something? :P

[el borracho]

Portugal :hug:

woot I'm with you on Portugal, I'd like to see the original homeland of my family (Sao Miguel, Azores).

[wulfstan]

For all those who said the UK, maybe you should visit before you fill in the paperwork!

As for me, it's the US, but i can't decide between Springfield or South Park!

[Ria]

Portugal :hug:

woot I'm with you on Portugal, I'd like to see the original homeland of my family (Sao Miguel, Azores).

I've only been once, and I'll never, ever forget it. It is breathtakingly beautiful. Your parents are from the Azores? That's awesome! My mom is from Salir do Porto :D (southern part) I'm not sure where in Portugal I'd like to live though, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to choose ;)

[wulfstan]

Damn...not a single pothead who said 'AMSTERDAM!!!!!1111'. Have all of ya crackheads gone to drug rehab or something? :P

I've been to the 'dam, and it's a seedy dive, full of shifty looking criminal types and decrepit hippies. Having said that, i got the feeling it's a beautiful city ruined by loads of foriegn stoners and criminals. I bet there's a whole side of it I didn't see.

Spain! Would join the Spanish Marines... :)

[Romulus]

I'm with you on Portugal

Same here. I saw a show on the travel channel about portugal and thought it was a beautiful place. The food there looks fantastic too. Quick question, how much different is Portugesse compared to Spanish?

Mmm yes, the food is great :) Especially pastéis de natas (remember to try those some time in your life! ;) ). Portuguese and Spanish are similar in many ways, yes (being Romance languages), but they are also very different, especially the way they sound. Portuguese also has many nasal sounds, like São (sounds like sown) and irmã (eer-mahn). Portuguese is more difficult, mainly because Spanish is so phonetic; Portuguese can be pretty tricky. I've seen a couple Brazilians/Portuguese on the board, I'm sure they can explain it to you better than I have (I'm still a beginner :| ) hope that helped a little :)

kinda like the dutch and german, it's close yet totally different

[Haiw]

From what I have seen Portuguese is harder than Spanish. Words are somewhat alike and such, but it's got harder grammar, with lots of different tenses.

[gaz]

Prague.

Great food, great people, great beer, beautiful girls, beautiful city. More than enough to keep me happy.

[Guttorm]

Hawaii, or New York.

[memphiz]

Australia
USA-only if i can be a bounty hunter
UK-anywere
Netherlands-hang out with Haiw

[EvanL]

I would only stick to the commonwealth.

[Aussie E]

I would say Australia but the gun laws are so F'd that I don't live there anymore. My vote goes to Switzerland. Good clean air, the alps and every other household has a full-auto! Oh, and don't forget the Frauliens!

[caspermeister]

Vancouver BC

Yeah woot
Since I'm from Vancouver, I guess I can't pick Vancouver then!
Well any island in south pacific will be a good place for my retirement :D

[Gauntlet]

Monaco. Live there, live large

[mustamato]

Norway, one of the richest countries in the world, (high standard in everything
that is), and nature is just stunningly beautiful. In summertime, paradise on
earth. Although I would choose something else during winter.

[Nawlins]

I'll agree with gaz, Prague is a lovely city. But of the places I have been to (not really that many), I would most like to live in Austria. Beautiful land, friendly people, and clean, orderly cities. Of places I haven't been to... probably the Cayman Islands.

Edit: Maybe I'll just summer in Austria and winter in the Caymans... in that other lifetime where I'm stinking rich.

[Trigger]

Chernobyl...

No seriously, Tahiti sounds nice.

In country, I liked Alaska and good ol' Arizona. :D

[digrar]

I'd go to New Zealand, probably the North Island, the South Island is too close to Antartica :D . I would also probably have a better chance of not running into any Kiwi's there, they all seem to be over here. :D

[Argo AdAm]

Croatia.
Was there two times. Very nice country. There are:
- beatiful sea -> swiming, diving, yachting
- rocks -> climbing
- bars, restaurants, disco's -> different kinds of fun
- nice people -> ;)

or Canada

But I'm not going to move from my country - Poland. It's the best place to live for me.

[ash933]

Canada, or the USA... though nowhere near the huge cities.

It's those bloody Scotsmen down South here trying to keep the electric bill down!


Are there a lot of hot babes in New Zealand?

I'd say NZ is better than average in that respect.....definitely the same with OZ as well.....I've traveled a lot and I don't think any single place can lay claim to "The Best" in that category.....you most certainly would NOT be disappointed.

One thing I DO know for sure is:

Just like an Aussie or Kiwi accent will get you laid quite easily in the States

Same goes for a US accent way down here.......the women really dig it as long as you're laid back

So far, I've had the most interest in Brisbane, Australia...must have been a lucky couple of days for me......(not lucky, lucky....I wouldn't cheat)...but I felt like a frickin rock star..it was so easy

[mack pl]

Austaralia(i dont care what Flagg talking)

But we've got better beer in NZHmmm, maybe i should changed my opinion :roll: Nz or Austaralia, this is a question :roll:

[Flagg]

Hmmm, maybe i should changed my opinion Nz or Austaralia, this is a question

It's all the same really....if you're a citizen of Australia you can travel, live, work in NZ without restrictions.....if you're a New Zealand citizen you can travel, live,work in Australia without restriction.

Get two for the price of one ;)

[mocking_loudly_died]

Brisbane is a **** hole.

[Flagg]

Brisbane is a **** hole.

Who cares when the sun's shining, the beer's good and the women are drunk ;)

I like Crown...especially in the middle of a typical drought filled Aussie summer...I'm not gonna try knocking back Guinness and Kilkennys when it's 35+ outside.

I'm on my way to Sydney in two weeks to enjoy the wonderful traffic there for 3 days :roll:

Aah, the great west. With nice weather even. Incredible!

Seriously, getting somewhat bored with the place. Too expensive and cold (for the most). Got hooked on Melanesia, and the Solomons is definately a place i could see myself living a very laidback life at... Ah, palms and hot water! And also a Solbrew in the evening breeze. Can't get any better!

Another place where I would like to live is Iceland. Cold but the women and the hot springs make up for that. ;)
