Where is Everyone From?

I am in Canadas capital...Ottawa.
We have the longest outdoor skating rink...the canal.

Greetings from the oldest city in North America, St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada. Woooooo George Street!!

I live in a little town south of Houston, Texas. We've got heat, humidity, and mosquitoes, but at least it's easy to grow a garden here. I have visions of defending my few acres of ground from the hungry hoards that will be coming out of Houston if the stuff hits the fan.

I live in Albuquerque now but I was born on the Bar B ranch some 40 miles south of Dulce, NM... famed for its hidden UFO base... sorry cant say I remember seeing any unexplained lights without first being hit on the head

I was born and raised in southeast Georgia, USA.

Currently I make my home on a little island off the Georgia coast and also in the side of a hill near Atlanta , Ga.

Have been on many humanitarian missions around the world and believe every American should be required to spend at least one month in a third world country.

Oh, Canada! I do miss it! Good to 'see' you all on here, eh?
Are the smokes still outrageous up there?
Back in the 80's(when I was dumb and smoked)
they were five bucks a pack in fort nelson!
Met alot of cool 'newfs' up there also! I miss all the kind folks!
The brew and lemonade kinda makes up for it!
I haven't had a decent perogie since!
Glad to see you all on here! Thanks for your friendship!

Greetings from India. Namaste!

I live in two places, the Pocket area of Sacramento, CA and Iwaki, Fukushima, Japan.

I have also lived in Red Lodge, United Kingdom and Bad Durkheim, Germany, and many, many states in the U.S.

Seventh generation Texan but now living in a cowtown on the northern coast of the Republica de Colombia about 30 minutes from the Caribbean.

Here is a tulip for you all from the Netherlands.

The flat country full of windmills

Greetings from a very hot and humid Liverpool in the north west of England.

Apparently, I'm from America's freest state.

Born in a small prairie town in Canada. Spent much of my life below the 49th.

I have worked in six of Canada's provinces and five US States. Earned my degree in Phoenix many years ago. I have visited eight Canadian provinces and two territories, as well as 42 states. I haven't been to Newfoundland, PEI, or Nunavut in Canada, and I haven't been to Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Rhode Island and Hawaii in the US. I will be doing a loop through the corn belt this summer to check six more States off my list.

I currently work for a large International "Dirty" Oil Company in Albera.

I live where the men are men, and the sheep are scared.

Where safe sex means painting a red X on the cows that kick.

The Great State of Alabama.

where i'm from where i've been,no big deal.
its where i'm go'in thats really starting to bother me.

Hey there!
I was born and have lived in the boring US state of Maryland my entire life. I currently live in Baltimore City, birthplace of the "The Star-Spangled Banner", resting place of Edgar Allen Poe, home of the hilarious accent known as "Baltimorese", and setting of HBO's "The Wire". (I've never seen it.)

And even though I've never been too far from the Chesapeake Bay for more than a week at a time, my wish list of future travel destinations keeps growing. Now, if I could only get rid of my fear of flying.

I was born in the Netherlands. Lived in a small town of 1000 people until I was 6 years old.

My Dad is French. My Mom is Irish. That makes me Irish and French. Not Dutch, because in Europe we can choose our parents' nationalities!

When I was 6, we moved to Germany. I lived in Germany for 11 years in a small town of 500 people very close to larger towns.

When I was 17, we moved to the Pennsylvania country side not too far from the Amish. I lived there for 6 years in a small town of 1000 people not near any large towns.

When I was 23, I moved to the UK for my master's and to live with my future wife who I met at the uni. I was in Newcastle - a much larger town for once, and bloody lively! Yeah!

When I was 26, we moved to Taiwan.

Now I'm 29, and still living in Kaohsiung, Taiwan - the beautiful tropical south. This is a city with more than 1 million people!

Where will I go next? Probably back to Europe, preferably France or Germany.

Been to Ireland, France, Italy, Thailand, states here and there in the US, Macau, Belgium (easy to forget), Luxemburg, Austria, Wales, England, Scotland. Not to Canada yet, sorry to say. And not yet to Australia.
