    I'm from Romania, Bucharest to be more exact. Our country is slowly developing and becoming important, so I'm happy about that! What city do you live in?

    The city I live in is called Saint John. It is on the Bay of Fundy. The bay is known for highest tides in the world. We are also known for the Reversing Falls.

    I am from Serbia. A beer drinking country full of crazy people. it is located, if you do not know, on Balkan peninsula just south from Hungary and west from Bulgaria an Romania. We have some famous people from the past and some that are famous right now. Nikola Tesla is from the first group so is Mihailo Pupin, Mileva Einstein, Karl Malden, Milutin Milankovic, Ivo Andric and the later group Novak Djokovic, branislav Ivanovic, Emir Kusturica, Aleksandar Kolarov...

    I am in Central Virginia. It is very pretty here...but kind of boring too since I am not too close to the cities. At least you have good country music Destiny! Serbia would be interesting to visit.!

    I am in the Seattle area. It is a wonderful place to live (if you can stand the rain) with many great local breweries and distilleries.

    I have never been to Seattle but I have heard many great things about it. Maybe some day I will make it out that way.

    I'll just say Europe since I travel a bit too much for my own good. :D
    I've been without a real permanent residence for maybe 1.5 years now, though I'm planning on settling down for a bit later this year.

    I am from Indiana. Born and raises and then still haven't ever left. The only place where it can be 65 with thunderstorms in January today and blizzard warnings out for Wednesday!

    It actually is not too bad at all. I like it here. The people are very friendly and the scenery is beautiful.

    I had a look around on Google Maps, the scenery is beautiful indeed. It resembles a city in Romania actually, Cluj to be exact.

    Am from San Antonio, Tx. However, just recently I have been asked by several people if I'm from the Northeastern part of the country. Supposedly, I've got a different accent!
