    I have no interest in living outside the US. I never have. I might be weird. I might just be boring.

    New Zealand, Australia, or Canada.

    Since I love the US, it would be Canada. British Columbia to be exact.

    I used to live in Mexico when I was a young kid. Have no desire to live outside the US. Maybe Canada tho.

    I could live in the Netherlands or Sweden. I think it would also be cool to live in Africa.

    Probably Germany or England. Have been to Germany many times and love the place. Never been to England just seems like a cool place to be. Nothing beats good ol' America though.

    Places I would not live would be Kuwait, Iraq, & Afghanistan, been there once was enough for me.

    I lived in Paris, Moscow, and Barbados each for a year at a time while in the service and traveled to several other countries during that time. Paris was alright not sure if would want to live there full time tho, so I'd pick Ireland or Australia out of the other places I've been but if it was for huntng opportunities it'd haveta be Canada.

    I understand the Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan. I suppose Canada would feel comfortably familiar/remote enough...as the case may be.

    Why the other locales?

    Hooker, I heard the Swiss may have invented cargo pants. :poke:

    Still trying to shake the image of a pink shirted Germ playing a didgeridoo out of my head.
