If you could live anywhere in the WORLD

[Puma]

Where would it be?? Again, don't list Amsterdam so you can do drugs legally, or Colombia so you can make a profit on Coke.

Would you want to retire and make a life there? Have your career and life there?

It's been a life long dream of mine to settle either in Scotland or England. My father is from Scotland, and ever since I was a small child I've yearned to be there. I would love to land a teaching job there someday and relocate and start/end my life there. Or England.

Either where I am now, or in Japan.

I've been to many different countries, and nothing compares to Japan. The cultures are incredible, the food is great, the people are among the nicest in the world, the architecture is beautiful, the weather's not too shabby, and there's plenty to do at all hours. I often think of just going to live over there for a year.

I don't know much other parts of the world, let alone our own cities here in the US. So I'd probably go wherever my wife would want to go if she wanted to move elsewhere . If I'm single, I would most certainly travel just because I've always wanted to. Europe definitely looks absolutely beautiful from movies and pictures I've seen. I don't want to go to South Korea just from what I've heard. Insanely expensive and it's too over-crowded. like hustle and bustle but not that.

There's a lot of great choices, maybe Sydney if I were to go abroad. If I were to stay domestic Chicago is a pretty great city but lately I've been kind of fascinated with the Pacific Northwest.

I'd have to say Germany because that's where my great grandma was born and I'd like to chase down my family heritage there.

 

[MistahJuice]

I like Cali but if I had to choose another spot I'd probably say Amsterdam or at least in the Netherlands. Not for the pot but because the majority of my relatives on both mom and dads side live out there. Yep they're all black and speak dutch,

 

[Mr. Jollypants]

Japan for sure. I like their culture better.

Ok, but would you live the American-Japanese lifestyle, or fully convert and also become fluent in the language? As much as I appreciate their culture and food, I don't think I could convert too much.

 

[speedygonzales]

If i were to move anywhere it'd either be Germany or Italy, the car history and culture over there is awesome. and I would love to tour the exotic sports car factories over there

 

[joe7987]

You can never fully convert, in my opinion.

I would become fluent in Japanese if I lived there. I personally think it's messed up to move to a different country and then not speak their language. Hell, I think it's rude to VISIT a country and not make some attempt at the language.

I guess my question would be, what do you mean by Japanese lifestyle? Which aspects? Just by living there, you are somewhat forced to adopt their lifestyle, because it's the way the country is set up.

I absolutely agree with you about not speaking the language. I guess I was asking if you would adapt, period. I can't stand it when people move to another country, and especially where "American practices" aren't recognized, yet the person doesn't conform. I find it incredibly rude.

 

[Jlpz88]

Deff Colombia. Me In Colombia relaxing I'd like to retire there not from there but I loved it

 

[Jose1027]

I agree with Joe. I'd become fluent in Japanese. The only problem I'd have, I HATE seafood.

Really? What part of Japan did you go to? When I was stationed there it seemed like they hated us.

What is WRONG with you? It's mah FAAAAAAAAAAVE!

Did you miss the memo? Practically everyone hates Americans. If I ever end up in Europe I'm not saying I'm an American, and I'm going to practice an accent like crazy.

That could take awhile to type out

It might have been that he was military, and stationed there.
