i would like to live in lots of different countries... africa doesn't really appeal to me so much, personally. seems like it would be too hot and war-y.

North Africa might have nice spots, but the place does seem dangerous in many different ways.

Yes, yes I would. It's good. It's different. You can swear at people and they don't realise. There are other benefits, too.

to answer your question: yes. i would love to try out every country in the world. want to trade places? at the moment i'm working my way out of africa. the south is a good starting place before venturing north. i'm not quite sure why though. i think i may have heard a drunk mention it to me one night. but ja, be verrry careful in africa. whatever you do, make sure you find the tourist boards and organise yourself a trusty guide. you don't want to go wandering into any dangerous slums. they'll rob you. my friend's dad was shot during a hi-jacking in namibia last week. personally, i want to go where the sun shines and things are relatively safe. a place where i can raise my children in comfort. not having to worry about them running off and playing in some dodgy spot where they'll be attacked by some madman who thinks raping a virgin child will cure them of the aids disease.

It would be cool to be displaced but I'm too scared and too comfortable. I'm content to just observe and imagine what it would be like in (insert place here). Live vicariously through music, movies, stories, internets, photographs, video game missions, etc.
If you feel you want to vamoose I'd say you should get on it and start figuring out where to go. You're here for a good time, not a long time, yo.

all 3 are great places. tuh-ronno is lovely. ive been in U of T twice too (wanted to do geology there)
if i ever moved to canada it would be some obscure place in the prairies like Drumheller or something. completely different to what im used to.
