If you could live anywhere, so forget about any regulations etc, or applying to live anywhere or needing green cards etc, if you could live abroad where would you like to live and why?

Me and kaz have been talking about this lately, but cant think where, Aussie land is suppossed to be nice tho

Would like to live in Australia but it's just too far from family/friends

At least with Spain you're only a 2 hr flight away

Cairns (Australia), Montreal/Toronto (Canada) or Oahu (Hawaiian Island). Would be difficult choosing which one as I loved all of 'em in different ways. Hopefully will move to one of them one day but as said you really need to have a trade that they really need in order to move there permanently, which I don't have at the mo

hmmm... dunno if i would want to live in one place forever, i get itchy feet... in my meagre 19 year existance ive live in holland, england, germany, cyprus, italy & the falklands, and been to lots of countries... loved australia, but theres not much history or character, and its abit hyped up. i have no desire to go to america (no offence to the americans!) maybe on a desert island with only myself for company. and coconuts.

I'm a city person and lived around NYC just about all my life, I've been to other countries, (Costa Rica, Peru, England) and other states (Florida, Colorado, the whole East coast of the US, Hawaii).
I think I would go somewhere where it's not to boring, but yet not to busy. I really like Florida, but Taryn Loved Hawaii!!! So much so that we almost Moved there! but then I would eventually miss my friends and family and you could only do so much on "The Rock". We are still not sure yet, we will one day move out of this area, NYC hasn't been the same. Hmmm now you have me thinking
