Following on from Lynda's thread, Are you happy where you are living or would you like to live elsewhere?

I live in Kent but would love to live in Australia. My husband has family over there and a few years ago we applied to go out there. We were accepted but then my husband decided that he didn't want to go, So we stayed.
I'd go tomorrow if he changes his mind.

Hi Pat

I like where I'm living, but given a choice, I'd be Barcelona-bound. Funny how you find a place that seems to "fit", isn't it?

I love it where I live but I do sometimes wish I could go back to Powys in the middle of nowhere.........

i'm happy in Exeter. I've lived here all my life so why move? It's not too big and not too small..

I wish the UK was closer and I could afford to nip over more often. I wouldn't live anywhere else than Aus. but there are so many people I love and miss in England.

Sue,
Yes that would be the hardest thing. That's why we didn't go in the end. Hubby is closer to his family that I am to mine.
Pat

I'm quite happy here in God's Country ;)

I'm happy where I am.
We've moved quite alot since being married, including abroad ( 2 countries) but am happy to stay put now, but with opportunity to travel to visit other places.
A return trip to New Zealand would be great. I really enjoyed last year's visit there.

That's easy for me to answer Pat.......I would love to live near St. Ives in Cornwall........Sis lives in Carbis Bay and Dad and Mum used to live in Hayle and we have relations living in Redruth.......I have loved Cornwall from when we were small and used to camp at Mevagissey........and Mum & Dad moved down in the 80's.......

Gwyn, Kent is beautiful, "The Garden of England"........i grew up there, (having been born and lived in London) I am now in Sussex.......

Well, we are gonna sell up in a couple or so years and go to Portugal or Greece............not quite sure.........

Hello Linda, yes, it is lovely with those lovely beaches and so much to do in Cornwall, Devon too.......I just love the south west.....

sally

I'd love to still be on holiday with all the family.......

at home in scotland with my mum and dad and family

At home in Spain with OH, Never mind I shall be there on Tuesday morning for a few weeks before I come back to finish my work.
There are many places I could settle and enjoy life, Ireland for its beautiful greenery, beaches, friendliness and simply because I feel that I belong there, Florence because I fell in love with it when I first visited nearly 35 years ago, anywhere on the coast or very close to rivers etc,,,,,I really miss the sea maybe because I have lived near the sea for most of my life.

But most of all with OH because he has supported me through so much, he is my best friend, my worst critic, and totally reliable,

i have just noticed a little box come up next to my message saying do not post anything to offend etc....I hope that I have not been offensive in this message

If I had a few spare million, I'd buy back our family property in Qld - actually, I'd buy back ALL of the properties my ancestors owned, but I'd live in the one I grew up in. I've told the family that they're to take my ashes there, so hopefully I'll be "home" one day - in the far, far distant future.
