Nice, very nice. Ouch Caff that must have hurt:mrgreen:

 

Best country I just decided is the US because we have the fifth amendment and that's all I'm going to say.

 

Right now I want to live somewhere that's warm-Costa Rica comes to mind...:-D

 

Anywhere you live would be hottttttt.

 

I'll pay you later for that great post, MM!!! Anyway, I'm glad that you see that...

 

Now that I've thought about it more, I think Brazil, southern Brazil, would be amazing. I've taken a liking to their culture. Either there or Sweden. It's hard to choose. Sweden mainly because their style of living is just amazing. Or Norway, either one is fine by me.

 

I have to say Vancouver, BC. Visited there and loved it. But at least I am now living in South Canada.

 

Hands down Australia IMO when I weight it all up on every point I can think of.. here's an incomplete list..

Every climate to choose from weather wise in regard to living. Huge variety of affordable foods. Multicultural. Outward looking people in respect to global view and uptake of tech amongst population, health and industry. Very safe. Very few guns. Low murder, suicide rate. Highly educated population. Highest per captor wealth in the world (Based on divide country into portions and distribute it to each citizen) Not strategically important for most conflicts. 1st world (High) standard's in all trades, industries, health care, generous social security and education facilities. If you can't pay before hand you will NOT be left to die on the street like a pig. Service oriented US Style service. A very good variety of exotically different kinds of pretty women who giggle a lot and are pretty happy friendly types who make good mates. Long life spans. Very little violence. The blue collar man can still afford to pay his bills , save some little doh if tries and still do something at the weekend etc. (ok it not getting easier but still) Plenty of nature even close around suburban centers. Wilderness in plenty. Very low rate of homelessness, no people living below the poverty line (world standard) Democratic country with right of assembly and other rights respected even if not constitutionally enshrined.

I could go on an on..

There ARE negatives. A lot of small minded folk (generally) compared to west EU - less appreciation for art and sophistications - very strict laws and penalties for minor crimes (speeding etc) Shit roads. Harsh censorship laws. To many flies and spiders and sharks lol A LOT of petty laws/rules that people tend make up themselves and everyone seems to obey them like robots. But no death penalty and ok conditions, for prisoners.. (not as good as Holland but.. you know.. not bad.). People THINK they socialize but there is no pub culture like EU. Restaurants are for choking down food and pissing-off off immediately before closing time of 9-30pm..prrrft, unlike EU or Brazil. And Alcohol is way too expensive and taxed (But then Japan is the most I ever paid for a beer ever ..occch) Tax rates are a little high compared to what Aussies get BACK (social security, roads etc) but its not so horrible. Lower quality goods compared to eu.

So.. when I weight the good verses to bad of the various places I have been. AU is the best all rounder.

I will say I have traveled extensively in the EU, including Hungry while it was not yet in the EU. Asian co's including Japan. Quite often to Brazil and also Argentina.

Never been to the USA, Canada, or African Middle east of India etc. countries etc.

 

I have travelled most of Europe, Asia and Pacific Asia.

I am Proudly South African

 

I live in the Frankfurt are.. We have great beer and great wine.

 

Not to mention a plethora of fat hairy blokes pretending to be women!

 

Beer, wine and great cheese (muenster)

 

Frankfurt's a great city although I must admit, I don't know it well.
I know Russelsheim a lot better, spent about a year on and off working there for Opel (this is going back a few years), wouldn't be too keen on living there though........ but Konigstadten, were I slept, was very agreeable!

 

I mean.. is there anything else in Rüsselsheim except Opel? :mrgreen:

 

...it's funny you should mention that, because I was going to say...'Russelsheim is Opel'......:-D

 

I can't tell.. I've never been there.. only stopped once at the train station.

But I saw enough to decide that I don't like it

 

I don't want to sound like one of those liberal fuck musicians who are all "Down with America, Fuck George Bush..." But I would have to agree that this country isn't as glorious as it used to be. But, since I've lived in the states my whole life, I can't really say I'd like to live somewhere else more... 'cept maybe my own private island, that would be pretty sweet.

 

Bundesliga

Does Russelsheim even have a football team in the Bundesliga? Do you have a favorite team? PLEASE don't say Bayern Munchen!!! hahaha

I've been to Germany a few times, worked close to Kaiserslautern. Enjoyed your country so much! Shame I didn't learn German as much as I would've like to. I only know one phrase that helped me out many times: Sprechen Sie Englisch?

 

No, Rüsselsheim doesn't have a soccer team in the Bundesliga.. I don't even know if they have one at all - If they do, it has to be really bad cause I don't know of it.

My favorites are 1. FC Kaiserslautern and FSV Mainz 05

 

Japan, but only if you speak the language, its real tough otherwise.

Konnichiwa, watashino namaewa MM desu, oaidekite ureshiidesu, watashino iukotoga wakarimasuka?

Why, the people.
