Yes I do and only moved this year, albeit slightly to the north of my country of origin (England). I am well traveled and would like to live somewhere more exotic for a year or so but I don't think I could live anywere else.

I was born in Romania in 1992, but I moved to the UK in 1996 as an asylum seeker with my mother. I'm more or less integrated with UK culture, but I don't think of myself as English at all, or, really Romanian, either. :P


My biggest issue is answering 'where are you from?', I tend to answer 'England' and just hope the conversation doesn't continue because I know very little about England - even during school, it was a private school so I was confined within boarding, little access to TV and so I'm just oblivious to a lot of stuff.

I then don't want to get into the whole conversation of where I've lived, which might be of interest to a first-time listener, but is utterly boring for me.

Alas, in living in an overseas culture, the most common question is 'where are you from?' - additionally, my accent is very hard to pick up since it's reasonably 'international' so it's even more common a question for me.

Hmm, well...

I was born in Dallas, Texas, and live in Dallas, Texas. I've been as far east as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland(I didn't live there, just went on a three-week long group trip to the UK and the Rep. of Ireland) and as far west as San Francisco, California.

Yeah, but I've moved from Suffolk (rural) to London (capital)

I've also spent a lot of time abroad, in particular Spain and France, went to Virginia but that was in '93 and I don't remember it as I was about 1. Caribbean, Mauritius and also Russia, Turkey. I like travelling and whilst I would like to spend more time abroad, realistically I won't for a while (damn you student debt and another 5 years of uni) but I think I will live in England the rest of my life, as other places I'd like to visit but not live.

No, I'm from the ocean.
"As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master."

Yep. Hell, I've never even moved once.
I am letting this nation die. I may or may not return after a long fucking while. I need a break from all the LYING AND CHEATING.

Oh, wait. That'll probably continue. I'm gonna pretend it's not happening, then.
