Where would you go & why?

Italy. Preferably Tuscany or even Venice. But definitely Italy. I may have other choices too but that is my passion. And I would learn the proper language.

Leaving on the 4th of November for four months in New Zealand. If things don't improve in the U.S., I may just apply for citizenship (my wife is a NZ citizen). I wouldn't really, but I have had it up to the gills with our politicos, all of them.

Dont take this the wrong way Lon but would you qualify at the age you are?

Ireland or Australia.........would love to check those countries out.

Anywhere.....fed up with so much including people:-5:-5:(

I am not sensitive about my age, or much else for that matter, but yes, I checked a few years ago and there are number of categories that I come under that would allow me to be granted citizenship. I just don't see any real advantage in doing so. I would qualify under the family and financial categories. Age would not be a factor.

definately Australia!

No.....I love Australia:-4

I've had the chance of a permanent move to several countries - so I've thought about it. And, as the song says, I still call Australia home.

Been there and done that.... I lived in America - New Hampshire in New England for two years, it was beautiful and the people were lovely, but I just couldn't settle, I missed 'home'... I'd never leave again... I love England far to much

I have always said I would never leave England but I will eventually leave these shores to be near my nephew in Spain.

The town he lives in is so beautiful, I fell in love with the people and way of life.

I know it's only a few of hours by plane but it's a million miles away in terms of lifestyle. :-6

Nope, happy and proud to remain a Canadian and simply travel about the world to see other countries. Home is where the heart is and my heart is here at the foot of the Rockie Mountains :-4

Seville, Spain!

In the late 70s I applied and was accepted for emigration to Australia - ended up getting married instead :-6

No, I think that I live in a wonderful country and would never think of moving anywhere else. When I was younger, on my 1st trip to Ireland and meeting my beloved relatives, I wanted to move there to be closer to them. Now, I realize that there's no place like home and will always live in the States. I feel so blessed living here. This is my home:-4.



If I could visit for 2 months a year, I would love to spend time in Donegal, Ireland, in the Algarve in southern Portugal, the southern part of France and Tuscany, Italy.

My girlfriend lives in Vermont, so I may move there to be with her. We're about a six hour drive apart right now.

She lives less than an hour's drive from the Canadian border, so I could cross over frequently, and I can still listen to CBC Radio there, so it wouldn't feel like I left my country.

Given the fact it is the only state in the Union that G.W. Bush hasn't set foot in since he became President, I think I'll get along famously with the natives.

It was my geography project in third year (age fourteen) - of such trivia is my life made!

That's where my nephew lives, it is so beautiful. :-6

if we had to move we'd go to Ireland cuz hubby is from there. :-6



I'd love to go to Mexico for a while. I'm not too far from the border. :wah:

Ireland seems worth a punt.

Canada. I like so many things about it. Friendly, helpful, generally easygoing, laid back people, beautiful scenery, not too crowded, away from the rat race, great seafood, and a health plan that would keep my husband and I out of financial trouble.
