Yes I do. Born and grew up in a small village in Western Norway. Still lives there, have never lived elsewhere. Don't think I would like to either.

Oh and I do, as refs the OP. Lived around most of the UK. It's all depressingly similar.

The only difference is the accents, well atleast in the cities.

Born in London, lived there for 2 years, till I was 2, then Manchester till I was 14. Moved to Harroe School while my family relocated to Liverpool, might be moving to Newcastle and hopefully attending Princeton or Harvard Unis.
But I've been 'settled' all my life.

EDIT: No, I'm not middle class. I fought tooth and nail to get a bursary (80% of fees and uniform) only last year. And I'm a proud working class boy. Born in Lewisham, moved to Stockport. Not the two areas that spring to mind when 'posh' is mentioned.

We like to say just "Princeton or Harvard" without adding "uni." Good luck.

Good and bad. The politics/economy and all that stuff suck. The nature, the villages and the people are nice. Though i am fairly disappointed in our how we mistreat our cities. Some parts(in downtown) look awful.

I'd disagree. There are definite difference between the three constituent countries in which i've lived. I've found NI to have the most welcoming population (despite my dislike of the country itself for prolonged periods of time), Scotland to have the greatest love for their heritage and culture, and England having the most confident personalities.


Well yes, but essentially the cities are all the same. As in gang violence, rundown areas, touristy bit, big buildings. The people are different though. Though I've got a lot of family in Scotland and, as in England and probably NI and Wales, it depends on where you are.

How was Santa Barbara and Kyoto? And isn't Santa Barbara also really small? I've been there a few times before when I lived in Ventura, but I can't really imagine what it'd be like to live there.

Serbian cities not nice? Okay, Belgrade wasn't that beautiful, but Novi Sad is just gorgeous(and it was winter when I visited... it's probably even more beautiful in spring or summer). I haven't seen any other city besides those two though. And I happily agree about the people :)

I feel so sorry for you.
"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."—former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman
