what do you prefer?

i want to move to countryside some time in the future..i
just love the relaxed life, time seem to past slower and it
all just seem so idilic..i would still want an airport
nearby tho :)

i have real nice memories of my childhood when i spent a lot
of summers at my grandparents farm...they lived close to two
quite big cities but they almost never went there..they had
all they needed in their village, see :) i want that.

Intellect is like a major city
Laden with concrete, metal
Advanced modes of transportation
Shining buildings, and fenced in parks

Spirit is the mountain's forest wilderness
and vast countryside that surrounds it
Too many people live in the city
Struggling day to day for mere existance
Most have forgotten how to live off the land
They only experience nature on class trips
and short-term vacations

For those that live in the country
Cities are like amusement parks with high prices
and temporal satisfaction
At the end of the day, they are tired
and ready to go home, and relieve their ringing ears

The city. I love the city, the countryside for more than a
day would get boring

Cost

City - Loads

Country - Loads, unless it's in a poxy little town in the
country

Travel

City - Impossible to park, awful to drive round

Country - no public transport worth mentioning

People:

City - Souless, no sense of community

Country - Clique of inbred freaks

Nightlife:

City - More nightlife, so much so that you are woken up by
it if you go to bed before 2am

Country - no clubs, pubs full of afformentioned inbred
cliquey freaks.

Activities:

City - swimming pools.

Country- hiking, mountian biking

Result: It's a draw really.

haha nice, but "Country - no public transport worth
mentioning" - why would you need that in the countryside?
you can park your car everywhere or even better you can go
everywhere on your feet or a bike :)

and as for nightlife, when you hit 30 you won't miss night
life all that much..

city 60%
countryside 40%

i love abandoned industry areas near city, which are almost
reclaimed by nature, with as few people as possible.

Got very used to music, internet, computers.
But love forest, rivers, lakes, sea.

"clique of inbred freaks" - oh ceri, if you ever went on
bullseye you'd win the speedboat with your eyes closed.

I've been living in the countryside all my childhood and
youth and stuff, I can't stand it anymore. It's boring and
it's depressing and it's shit and it sucks.
