I was born in Osceola, Wisconsin. It is right on the Minnesota border and is only around five minutes away from where I grew up in Shafer, Minnesota. I currently live in St. Paul, Minnesota. It would be fun to visit England. I kind of want to go to Sweden because I am of Swedish decent. The only two foreign countries I have been to are Canada and China. And I guess Japan, too, although I never left the airport. I'm only a nine-hour drive from the Canadian border, but going to China took twenty-four hours of almost straight traveling! (three-hour flight to Portland, two hour layover, fifteen-hour flight to Tokyo, two hour layover, then another three-hour flight and I was finally in Beijing) It was my first time on an airplane, too.

Hi all! I'm currently living in Los Angeles, California (hate it), but I'm originally from a small beachside town in Northern Cal. I really miss the quiet foggy evenings there. Ah well. Only thing LA has going for it is the occasional star sightings, although I have yet to spy AR! (That would be the day!!) ;D

Can't tell you where exactly, but it's somewhere 50 miles from San Francisco and 100 from Sacramento.

It's about 90 miles south of San Francisco, on the coast. Very 'hippy dippy' rep., but it's not all that bad

I don't live very near the coast, so my family usually goes there during the summer for the Boardwalk and stuff. Very fun. And I think my high school goes on field trips there at least twice a semester.

I guess I just always feel SC is so small no one would know it - but I forget it's very much a tourist destination. Ah the Boardwalk, greasy smells, noisy arcade games and taffee . . . whee fun!

Hey,
looks like I'm the only Belgian in here. No wonder though, it's such a small country... ;D I live next to Brussels (this city you must have heard of, ;D ) but I'd like to live outside the city... Anyway, I like England, have been to Stratford-Upon-Avon and it was quite nice!!! Hummmm, Anne Hathaway's cottage... Italy, France and Spain are nice too...

I currently live in Hull, England (which isn't a million miles from where winky22 is). I'm originally from Kent but moved north a few years ago. I'm hoping to move back south before too long. When I do move, I would like it to be in a semi-rural area as I don't like city living.
If I had a choice of where to move to, I would love to live in Canada. I've been there five times (visit number six hopefully coming up next year) and it's fantastic.

I am a true Southern Belle, from North Carolina. I loved watching Alan in "Something the Lord Made". He was adorable...a southern drawl with an english accent.

I've lived in Louisiana my whole life. I've traveled throughout the US, but not to all of them yet. Hopefully, one day, I will be able to travel all over the world! My first stop - The Emerald Isle!

I'm from a city in Norway called Trondheim. It's the 3rd biggest city in the country, but since we're a small country it has only 150.000 inhabitants. ;D
