Since we have a very international community I though it would be interesting to see where we have spent our lives! So post your place of birth, places you've lived and where you live now. Obviously no specific info should be posted, just country or city ;).

I'll go first: I was born in Toronto Canada, I've lived in: (Canada obviously), USA, Hungary, New Zealand and Malta (I've had almost whole year stays in multiple other countries but I wouldn't really consider it living). I currently live in Switzerland.

Belgium Belgium Belgium, home is where the internet i.
Guess I'm too young to have seen the world.

Grammar nazis are people too!
Treat your local grammar nazi nicely and he might teach you a thing or two. (Note that I'm Belgian and not a native English speaker.)

Despite being a first generation immigrant, I was born in South Texas, so I'm conveniently an American. I've lived in Taipei, Taiwan, until my family moved back to South Texas.

Surrey ehh, where abouts roughly (not trying to get your address so don't worry :P).

 

I was born in Ashford then moved up to Lincolnshire in 1991 when I was around 2 years old I think.

Yep, not far at all really - you can walk up a hill near by and just observe which is pretty cool.

I was Born in the U.S.A, I have either lived in every state in America or have visited one of the two. I have lived in 46 out of the 50 states here.

 

I now resign here in Florida, and plan to never leave this state. Out of all the states this is the best state I have lived in.

Two places I would move over being here in America,

 

1) Tokyo

 

and

 

2) Canada

 

My wife has alot of family that lives in Canada :)
