Hmmm, well I am actually thinking of moving places again fairly soon. However I am probably just heading back to SA. If I was forced to pick something other than SA, probably Italy. (The cultures a bit fucked up but it's interesting) South America would also be pretty cool. (Thinking Argentina)

.

lol, nah only leaving after the middle of next year.

I've been thinking about moving out far away for a while, although I haven't looked for a job or anything yet. If I could choose I would go anywhere in East/Southeast Asia or Oceania. I don't really care as long as it's not too crappy, bonus points if they speak a language I don't know that's not impossible to learn (fuck tonal languages).

About South Korea, which is one of the options I consider, from what Koreans tell me is not quite how you describe it. Food is awesome, women are cute (although a bit crazy if I were to trust random married Korean guys who come here) but it's not clean and they are racist as fuck with anyone non Korean, specially if you have dark skin. I have better references about Japan, but since they come mostly from creepy weeaboos who are happy as long as they can buy cartoon dolls and watch Japanese girls...

That's somewhat weird. Because the person I know who is there on holiday is dark-skinned (iraqi background). And he said he was treated very nicely. However, this may be because his father has a political background (ambassador) and that was the cause for the 2 week stay there to begin with.

great food, yes.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fh4a-XV6XJo

Not that it isn't wrong, but I bet similar things happen in plenty of slaughterhouses around the world.

Sweden/Scandanavia, for fit womenz and real internet. But not permanently, only a year or so. Maybe Korea or japan, for some culture shock, but also not permanently.

But yeah, I don't think I'd want to stay anywhere else but SA permanently, I don't think there's a better place than the cape area anywhere. What I want is a job that I can do for 6 months a year, and earn pounds/dollars/euros, and then just come chill in SA for the other 6 months of the year. Due to exchange rate it'd be easy, and there'd never be any winter \o/

This.

Berlin \:D/ cultural heart of Germany (Europe?)

I'd love to try out some really huge cities, Tokyo and similar, and see what it's like. And Asia in general would be pretty interesting, stuff has to be changing so fast over there I'm sure it's crazy to experience that every day. Also getting shot in Sao Paulo or similar sounds fun.

South France - great weather, great countryside, great food.

Australia - only heard good things about it by now, got a few friends over there, all in all I've only met really cool people out of Australia so prob can't go wrong with that one. Also check this for reference: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0172543/ one of my mates was living like down the road from where they made the earlier parts of the movie, including the whole frog golfing and so on :D awesome!

+1 for Berlin, kick ass city.

cultural heart of Germany (Europe?)

GTFO :p

:]

sorry, but Viena takes that spot for anyone who's not German. (even tho it may not be true)

obviously not true then :>

work more on the marketing then :P

Cultural heart? What kind of culture are you talking about, quiff-boy?

Berlin is cool!
Ich liebe Berlin

If I had a reliable online job, I would probably move somewhere cheap and sunny. Like Mexico or Thailand. If I had to do actual work there, I would probably go teach English in China.

I'd pick Japan in a heartbeat.

Went there on vacation last year for two weeks and it was very enjoyable. Tokyo is a very clean city, very safe, there are tons of stuff to do and the culture is very interesting, on the other end of the spectrum from, let's say, the USA. The people are rather quiet and peaceful which to me is priceless. There are some downsides though, people kind of make you feel like you don't really belong if you don't look japanese. For instance you're not supposed to be seated in public transportation if you're a foreigner (or so I take it) and you do get weird looks now and then, but that's part of the culture I guess. Also do NOT expect to do anything in the long run there if you do not speak some japanese. I do not speak a single word and had to use sign language for two weeks to order food and make myself understood, beyond Narita Airport I found very few people willing to speak english.

It can be a fun experience, but I wouldn't live there for more than five years or so. Hope that helped :)

england - awesome place, hot women, lots of culture, great food, lots of opportunity! london birmingham liverpool derby!

poland - vast empty lanscapes, everyone has left for the UK already.

Thats irony right? I mean hot women and great food in england? Seriously usualy you can tell which girl is native just by looks, and for english food to taste good it must be cooked by french.

Irony of a Pole talking about native food being shit is beyond belief. Most of your food looks like dirty dish water and rotten soiled potatos prepared by a witch in the 14th century.

I'd much rather relocate to Poland than UK tbh.. They have you beat by a mile in the women department, as for food.. I've been to 3rd world countries with better food than the over priced shit I ate in the UK.

They have you beat by a mile in the women department

Yeah those eyes with black rings around them like a hag combined with their skeletal frame gives me an instant boner. Not to mention the amazing accent which wears on you like nails on a chalkboard after five seconds.

I've been to 3rd world countries with better food than the over priced shit I ate in the UK.

That's because you're likely a retard who had no idea where to eat. If you went to London and you're complaining about the price then I have no sympathy for you, not really a big surprise than one of the top 2 most expensive cities in the world would be costly is it genius? Not to mention vs. your lol currency.

I don't show up in Sweden, eat a bunch of surströmming before throwing up and proclaiming myself an expert on Swedish cuisine and all of it to be shit.

The irony is: I actually think the UK isn't very good for native cuisine or women in general. Difference is you tards have next to no idea what you're talking about yet are talking like you were some kind of international cuisine playboys who were experts.

What's more I've never been to a single country so far in my life which didn't have more than enough beautiful women and more than enough good food around to eat.

Moral of the story: you're a cunt, l8rz.

If he thinks food in the UK is expensive he should try Norway.

or sweden

a LOT of norwegians go to sweden regularly to stock up on cheap food

Don't try to steal our oil!

Not to mention the amazing accent which wears on you like nails on a chalkboard after five seconds.

Still heaven compared to listening to Katie Price. It's like my fair lady before the transformation part had sex with joey deacon

it's not the price per se. your everyday food is fish and chips ffs... even US has you beat in that department.

to be fair they only reason you can eat well in the UK is because of immigration ;)

well that and Sherperd's Pie


and scones.

English food is just as bad/good as any other Germanic country.

nope.

What's so great about Austrian, Danish, Dutch, German, Icelandic, Norwegian and Swedish in comparison to the UK then?

I await the classic ignorant comments.

I am not saying that every Germanic country is better, just that most (or at least some are).

German cuisine has different branches, e.g. Bavarian specialities or fish specialties from the north. And it also has been changing over the times. But Germany has you and imo every other country beaten in one thing: Bread.

Austria: One word: Schnitzel Is there any English dish that is s known around the world? I don't think so. Add to that sweet food like Germknödel and Kaiserschmarrn.

I don't like Dutch food much, but their Pancake houses really own. American pancakes are made from cardboard in comparison.

Denmark,nothing good to say from me. I mean, what? Hot Dogs? Actually, they got Rřdgrřd! Not enough for food but oh well.

Sweden got Köttbullar with Lingonberries $$$.

But honestly, I have no fucking idea why anyone would group the nordic countries with Germany and Austria when it comes to the cuisine. Sure doesn't look like you know what you are talkig about...

As for ignorance about that topic in general, I've been to Germany (duh), Netherlands, Sweden, Austria, Denmark, Sweden and the UK. Have you? (Also to Switzerland and the Czech republic, which certainly have more related food than Iceland...)

I grouped the Nordic nations since they share a clear cultural heritage with the more traditional Germanic nations and they do share a similar food culture. Compare that to the Latin or Slavic countries for example and you'll probably notice the difference.

Being well known isn't much of a factor upon the relative merits of a nations cuisine. Like I said, none of the nations mentioned by you or me can claim to be worth more than the others since they are all as good and bad as each other.

But with that said, I'd say battered fish is one of the most well known dishes in the entire world and is easily comparable to Schnitzel and I'd say the most famous sweet dish of them all is British in origin, Ice Cream.

Just having been to a country is no indicator of knowledge when it comes to food (or anything) I'm afraid, so unless you're an international food critic I think it's best to avoid that type of pointless discussion.

The well known "facts" that the British have bad food and women are centuries old and deeply ingrained in European (and other places) culture.

When you start out with a negative outlook on something it's very hard not to have those views reinforced and vice versa (e.g. look at ddk, he wanted to not believe it but he had obviously been influenced by it enough that his viewpoint was easily won over).

No, (Southern) German and Austrian food is not the same a nordic nations.

And anyone who visited those countries and had the traditional food will tell you the same.

Btw. Romania, a country of latin heritage and situated among slavic countries is highly influenced by the Southern German and Austrian cuisine. And it's nothing like food in Sweden...


I looked up icecream on wiki and what are you talking about? The idea is ages old, and even when talking about modern icecream only the English site says it was first made popular by England and the US (1744). The German page offers several references among them the Italians (1692!), the French and also the U.S.

Having been to the countries certainly gives me a better inmpression than someone reading English texts... And I don't need to be an international food critic to know how wrong you are. In fact, afaik, those critics hardly ever criticise the actual traditional foods...

Yeah, I heard those well-known "facts", too, and am aware that there is a certain influence. However your conclusion seems to be that because everybody knows and spreads that "fact" it can't be true...

And then comes a prime example of twisted logic:
"e.g. look at ddk, he wanted to not believe it but he had obviously been influenced by it enough that his viewpoint was easily won over"

Did it ever occur to you that maybe, just maybe girls really are hotter there?
And, hey, if you disagree, I am very certain that it's just because you want to disagree and let that influence your opinion.

I mean I have heard rumors that the weather in Italy is sunnier than in the UK. And alas I found that to be true, even though I was in England for only two weeks, hardly a representative amount. Therefore I must be wrong, the sun always shines in England.

No, (Southern) German and Austrian food is not the same a Nordic nations.

Well then, I guess it's a damn good job I didn't say it was the same, like how I didn't say Dutch, German and Austrian food was the same or French, Spanish and Italian.

All the old style Iced dishes weren't the same or not made famous by that nation, I mean come on you can't honestly believe that Austrians were the first people to create Schnitzel or Schnitzel type dishes? or Sweden with meatballs?

You're totally missing my point, something you seem to make an art of here on esr. Just visiting a country and tasting their cuisine doesn't make you an expert on it, nor does it give you the ability to pass fair judgment upon a nations cuisine.

I didn't make any points about what food critics say or believe, I was pointing out that neither of us are international food experts so you should stop trying to come across like one.

It's hardly twisted logic, if I said to you an apple from the UK tastes better than one from Germany there is no way to verify it either way. It's an entirely subjective belief and is easily led by cultural beliefs/practices and not by fact or evidence.

The weather example you gave can be backed up by evidence, decades of it. There is no evidence to suggest any claims about British food or females attractiveness are true.

As for your Ice Cream comment:

- The Italian 1692 dish sounds very much like sorbet to me... (e.g. not Ice Cream)
- The French comment doesn't have a source

So the English recipe from 1718 gives a nice fair claim to the modern dish if you ask me.

food in the UK has improved. In London prices are much dearer of course. I paid 12 Ł for a small salad, bread and a piece of pastry at Baker & Spice in Chelsea *lol*

I love it when dorks on gaming websites talk about good food/drink and pretty women, like the cloest most of them ever get to either is a wank, pizzahut and a diet coke.

Stick to talking about topics within your grasp.

lol k

You're just bitter because you would have to settle for inner beauty if you ever landed a chick. Speak for yourself sir

yeah because people with an internet in computer games have absolutely no experience of those such basic life experiences like food and women at all.

besides, you're only admitting you lack those things. which is no surprise.

Not only do you continually latch onto the exception (which is the smallest) and present it as a suitable argument, but you then go on to dispaly hideous amounts of playground ignorance with your "whoever smelt it, dealt it" mentality.

In other words, if someone says something that you dislike, they're obviously somehow self projecting or trying to hide the fact that they are are or are not any of those things. Oh please.

Its great the net gave the people like you an opportunity to talk but it must be breeding a lot of real life fail.

In other words, if someone says something that you dislike, they're obviously somehow self projecting or trying to hide the fact that they are are or are not any of those things. Oh please.

You do this all the time.

Really, then you should be able to back up your claim with a link/quote to a post when I did this.

http://www.esreality.com/?a=all&user_id=23236

just scroll around. you'll find something.

oh please, we even had a cooking thread here once!

I've heard rumors sheep are hot in england too :P

i detest derby for a night out now :<

good job you dont go out then.

what happened last time?

nothing, just find it boring compared to notts

we went to do the 'derby mile' apparently everywhere had shut :(

Yeah the Mile used to be really good few years ago, but alot has closed due to the recession. Saddler gate, friar gate is quite a good area.

I know saddler gate, we usually end up there if I remember rightly and skint always recommends.

guess I'm too used to Nottingham, not that I like it that much but then I'm not really a going out person in that sense so it isn't going to help too much one way or another.

besides, every single female that truly hates me is from Derby! =]

Only been to Derby once, had a good night out. However, this was 5 or 6 years ago.

yeah, I've heard a lot on how ugly english women are, to find out that the most interesting women I had the opportunity to meet are from England (look + brainz, don't just talk shit like most east european women do), but of course this might not be the rule

It's just some unfounded stereotype that developed out of nothing.

So many people rave about Swedish girls, but from what I can see all the girls dye their hair blonde, wear about fifty layers of makeup and seem to love making themselves orange.

It's the Euro equivalent of Americans with bright white, obviously fake, bleached teeth saying we all have shit teeth. Cos apparently we're not cool enough to wear braces throughout school to straighten teeth which are otherwise perfectly healthy for a higher primate.

it's mostly about ratio, there are good looking people everywhere.

also, the blonde culture is avoidable and there are more lookers outside of it imo.

I was just doing the same thing everyone else does to the UK.

My opinion on Swedish/Scandinavian girls there is basically based on rahzei's links to pictures :P

It's pretty retarded to think that anywhere in Europe has a significantly different gene pool that would somehow result in every girl being insanely good looking.

i went to sweden thinking the girls thing was hype, i was pretty wrong. i currently live in poole/bournemouth area and southern london when i'm attending uni. but ya, the swedish girls are just on average a lot hotter, whether it's genetics or diet or whatever, who knows. but frankly the majority of it is just the face/long legs thing as well, i think for smokin' bodies you need to goto brazil.

The only difference is attitude and diet/fashion.

I've been to the UK, from what I've seen I'd still say scandinavian girls>UK, not trying to make an arguement here, I've also gone to sweden, norway(lived there aswell) it's not that different from Iceland, same for denmark.

The avg ratio of "level of attractiveness" imo is rather scandinavia>UK.

Even eastern europe has a surprisingly high level of attractive women.

Again, this is just an opinion.

a correct opinion, i dunno if you read my post wrong but that's what i meant with the scandi women :). I tried going there expecting the hype to be wrong but i was pleasantly surprised!

i'm gonna move from Dortmund to Dorsten this year.

FUCK YEAH!

can't decide whether that's a step down or up.

there sure is lots of room left for improvement though :P

deffo a step down. dortmund is a pretty awesome place to live if you can deal with the mining- and industrial characteristic.
i met quite a few people from hessen who work in the ruhr-area and they surely can't. :D

dorsten is just ... small.

gl hf!

thank you, kind sir!

Sans Sebastian, Spain - I absolutely loved my time there last year. It was the highlight of my trip to Europe.

Byron Bay, Australia - My favorite place to be in Australia, the epitome of Australia imo.

i presume some of you have moved, do you move after you have secured a job? or do u just decide to leave, goto where ever and pick up some random job for the meen time?

were not just talking travelling/long vacation, talking leave to set up home for a year+?

.

well there are quite a few places id like to visit, and moving i would also consider

my main problem is just getting the balls to go it alone

.

would prefer to move abroad =)

.

nowhere probably =)

I have moved cities about 5 times. I usually just have a bit saved up to get me by the first month and in the first month make sure I find a job. I've only had trouble once, of course lately I have friends all over the place and that helps a lot.

Australia - went there a few years ago and loved it.. Prob go Perth as i thought that was a cool city, has some damn hot girls too!

I guess I'll avoid Perth then...

Ha, gay

nah blad i got bare hot chicks

South France by sea and Pyrenees, cause I really like climate and surroundings there. Jura mountains region is decent too.

Japan, either Tokyo or Okinawa - just cause I like culture and everything thats japanese.

If for girls then I would go to Ukraine, if for fun then maybe Thailand.

My moon base is almost complete.

Should be a laugh to finally get there

put some gold mine on the way there and I'm in

if you put a gold mine on the moon, china would be there in a week.

The Netherlands

Public transport is super well run. There are ex-pat shops. Fries + mayonnaise. Toastie shops. The fruits of the cannabis plant. Sick + cheap internet for anywhere outside of Scandinavia. Fernandes red grape soda.

Done it before, will do it again. Doesn't have to be Amsterdam either since Den Haag, Rotterdam, Utrecht and Leiden are all fine due to the trains.

Wow, it's refreshing to hear a foreigner being so positive about our public transport, as the Dutch are always bitching about it.

UK probably has the worst in Europe.

It'd be great to live somewhere with a proper cycling infrastructure.

Only public transport that's good here is London. But London actually has fantastic public transport to be honest (Despite all the negative press).

I find most cities to be good.

the only thing that annoys me is the cost at times. longer distances I don't mind but some of the short distance costing is fucking disgusting.

and trains, the prices seem to be totally random. when I was in London last I got there and back for Ł18 first class, now it's going to cost me about Ł40 in November fucking standard. :(

I hate buses outside of London as you often have to say where you are going and the price varies on distance etc.

Train prices make no sense.

i wish the trains hadn't been privatised. CURSE YOU THATCHER.

one of the big bus services in notts and derby (trent barton) have different prices for different distances

it's crazy how they justify some of the prices. but aside that, they rule. tell you where to get off and all sorts, unlike the city buses.

I'm pretty sure nottingham city/council buses are all Ł1.50 regardless of where you go. which is sweet, except you need the exact change and if you haven't got it they don't give you change back. :(

every bustop has electronic signs though, detailing the time of the next x amount of buses, where they're going and how long until they arrive usually. big help :D

.

our 10 pence or their equiv? ;)

The Netherlands public transportation is pretty good, but there are a few dumb things about it.

Chief being the system of "strippen kards". When you're getting on a bus it doesn't make sense for the bus driver to individually stamp cards differently for everyone without a pass. It just takes too much time. Even worse, is when drivers actually sell 2-3 strip cards and then stamp them. Additionally, this also means bus drivers have to ask where you're going, which is hard to explain if you're unable to pronounce words with 15 consonants. =P

Also, they don't accept 5-10 euro bills.

Boston's system is more efficient - everyone pays $1.25 or flashes a card. It's totally automated, quick and easy.

The transportation overall is nice, though.

Everywhere needs oyster cards.

With the current tram system it has been upgraded so you can buy an hour card and flash it at the sensor when you enter/leave.

The pricing of the trains is always really impressive to me, cos we get gouged like fuck over here. Makes it so easy to hop from Amsterdam to Utrecht etc :D

Fries + mayonnaise.

and you were talking about quality of food a few lines above ...

Excuse me patat met is the best

if Fries then Belgium.

And don't get me started on where you can put your frikandels ;)

Is that untermensch food or something? TBH I wouldn't worry about it mate, better off spending your time over there looking for little girls hiding in attics to exterminate rather than frequenting the snackbars.

whenever I went to the Netherlands, whic h was a lot cause I grew up near the border, my number one choice of eating out was Asian.

Also staying at home eating vla and stroopwaffels <3

Stroopwaffels, fuck yeah!

I could never understand people who treat fries like some special dish :\

I know blonde, that is ordering only fries cause "Im on diet" :P

Mozambique or Tanzania

Sweden/Japan, maybe France

Barcelona, Berlin, NYC. Could also live like a king in Thailand.

Start by getting out of Garđabćr first mate.

Alaska. Or just stay in Norway, but in my own small house a bit away from people and internet, or have internet just one day of the week :P

Croatia, and not anywhere near the coast.... but in the parts that isnt discovered yet by tourists... The people there are super nice and the atmopshere is really relaxed. In the summer its nice and hot but not as humit as in the Netherlands and in the winter you can ski (Unlike in the Netherlands) so its the perfect place for me :P

Yeah but lots of land mines

and kickboxers

we had 1, but he's history nowadays tbh

same like van damme? he said van damme is no kickboxer at all, just ballet, now people say same about him? oh, cruel fate =))

well its true about van damme tbh, and cc is long past his prime. =/

he's old, has a cafe now, got a son couple of years ago, lost his motivation.

those signs just prevent people entering the weed fields

I see a great influx of tourists from now on
tourist first

hi. yes, those parts are nice.

"My choices:

Australia"

stopped reading there

Even their sunglasses are famous

death by jellyfish ftw

Been to Amsterdam several years ago. Nice people, easy to get a decent job, lots of shit to do, no problem with communication, as long as you know basic English. The amazing thing in going to a diff country is how different the people there are. The mentality. When i came back to Poland i realized how fucking sad this country is. It was almost a physical feeling when i was crossing the border, like something was starting to choke my brain. Bleh.

berlin, london

Canada

Vancouver maybe

Not Vancouver unless you have wads of cash and are willing to deal with a drug scene that's infested many parts of the areas around it. Average price for a decent house on the west side of Vancouver (not downtown, good luck trying to find a house for sale downtown) is $800K. If you go north past the downtown area to North Vancouver and West Vancouver, expect to pay seven figures for the same sort of house.

Rent for a one-bedroom downtown averages in the $1200-1500 range, most of them charging you additional for utilities. I've heard of more expensive areas, but Vancouver is seemingly much more expensive than a city like Montreal (dunno about Toronto).

USA.

Anywhere on the outside edges. Anyone on the inside is a fucking kook.

But anywhere outside the GREATEST NATION OF THE WORLD AMERICA, I'd have too choose any golden sand beach and blue water and friendly people. You got that you a kewl place to kik it.
Nothing more than chillin on da beach, swimming, fishing, beach volleyball, and rapin hot hoez on da beach is da life.

.

that you brah?

this more likely:

heh, yep, one of the good things in my ex-communist country is we still have a kinda conservative look on the matter -we don't kill these sexual deviated people but don't let them exhibite in public, same like it is not esthetic to let sick people to show their wounds to the public
compared to these johnny bravo rulz by far, u are right

Anywhere on the outside edges.

Maybe on the West Coast (Washington, Northern Cali, and Oregon ftw; Nevada's not on the Coast, but it's got some sick real estate, too). But the East Coast? Are you serious?

No comments on the Midwest and Southwest.

there are some very nice beaches on the east coast.

Yes, let's spend tons of money packing up shit and flying it and yourself over to the East Coast so you can sweat your ass off every summer and freeze your balls off every winter because of BEACHES, YAYYYYY!!!!

The majority of the West coast has far superior weather and topography, and its quality of living in the major cities is no worse than the East's. What does the East have that the West doesn't aside from irishmen and rednecks?

What's wrong with cold weather?

I presume you don't own a car? Aside from that, having consistently freezing weather where you're forced to wear several layers just so you can go outside without feeling numb after 20 minutes kinda sucks -- something you won't have to deal with very often during the winter in Vancouver. I know not all of the East coast is like that, but many parts are still much colder than the West coast, where it snows maybe 3 or 4 weeks tops out of the year, particularly in the Northwest -- usually more around 2-3 weeks in these parts.

I like cold weather.

Well, to each his own, I guess. I guess, if you don't like cold weather, read what I just said then? :o

the east doesnt snow as much as you think? Maybe you're thinking of states more something more central. It may snow here and there but overall it hasn't been much at all.

I know it snows more than in the west, and the snow we get here still sucks. Could just be my mindset since I'm not used to more than a couple weeks of blizzards every yeard, but still, dealing with a foot of snow that takes forever for the city to plow and ends up getting your car stuck in the middle of the suburbs and while it's parked on the side of the road does suck balls.

havent had a feet of snow in like 20 years :O

WTF are you talking about? You are going on as if I ever said anything like EAST > west . Holy shit man. Calm the fuck down. Like this is some competition. Wow holy fuck I just can't believe what you wrote. You seem very upset. WHOA. Chill out.

Some people like the nice weather and then snow. But seriously I have no clue what you're going on about all raging and shit. like some inferiority complex about something :o

You take text too seriously, I was just making a point that the climate sucks unless you really like consistent -10C and below weather, and the topography is OK at best. It's better than living in Arizona or New Mexico, but still, east coast doesn't really have anything "good" that the west coast doesn't.

LOL you're fucking retarded.

You started raging about my comment on living on any edges with beaches and then made it about something west coast vs east coast shit out of nowhere. Dunno even why you are making it a better this than that kind of argument.

u sound american :o GOTTA BE DA BEST N COMPETE NO MATTER WHAT ITS ABOUT. PRODUCE CONSUME WORK WORK WORK.

i made the move from England to B.C. Canada and it was the best decision of my life

Just don't move to Vancouver, or chances are you'd change your mind. The Interior and the Okanagan are definitely pretty sweet.

im at nelson in the kootenays and it doesnt get any sweeter

I want to move to a village in Spain that has decent broadband

these things are mutually exclusive I guess :P

That's what I'm afraid of : \

Good luck with that :D

All good choices, how about trying each one?

Also all those people recommending sweden just because of the broadband / women... don't fall for that trap! Berlin is also a fun choice I think if you're interested, I heard the rent there is not too expensive and Germans are always crazy funny =)

racist ban

"Germans are always crazy funny =) "

fail

k1ller, d1ablo (demon) etc

exactly my point

well we have to admit she's young and beautiful

was?

"From QuakeLive.cz ScarletJohansonsFather
she is young and beautiful = like most kinda looking ok women she is fuckin stupid =))
whateva :P "


oh ok.

no reason to feel ashamed
I was talking about ur mum

Yeah, cos everyone knows that gamers are the best representation of a country / culture.

and edit: d1ablo is russian

exactly my point: it doesn't matter what/who they are, as long as they have long feet and look interesting with their blue-jeans on which gotta catch chicks attention on some precise anatomic parts, god, I hope they dress well as well, and as long as they become all very active in the presence of beautiful women, they are hell of a funny, acting different to get laid and hell of a funny is same thing so you are in the right position to pronounce on it, you are right;
hell, the fact that germans are very funny is known by the entire world, or you confound the germans with your group of friends you chill out -hate this verb and this "occupation as well -with

I wasn't even really talking about guys in the first place.

There are many general opinions about countries and cultures where some are true and some are not. Ok, its probably an exaggeration that Germans in general are crazy / funny but they are certainly more outgoing and open than most cultures. I've never been anywhere else in the world where you can buy sex toys out of vending machines in the bathrooms.

It sucks that I can't even share an opinion about places which i've been because my experiences will always be invalid due to the fact that i'm a girl (?!). I'm not that young and i think i have been pretty lucky in how much of the world i've seen. I don't think either that opinion of different cultures and countries comes down to just sex but also personality.

because you are woman? hm, don't you feel strange you are they only one coming with the sentence germans are funny? with the mention I don't consider not being funny to disadvantage, I hope for god's sake I am not funny at all
then you put sex and personality in the same sentence, in a double mention :p
the reason to my conclusion is you pretty much reminded me a women who used to talk pretty much philosophical stuff on some sites and the level of discussions and writing as well was pretty high there, especially because we used to write in our native language, but once she made some "friends" close to her welll... let's call it needs she started to chill out with, she dared to compare the thousands of comments on profile forums with her chilling out lamer friends who just talk shit (they pretty much tried to say some thing on za Internetz too and they failed, so I had the opportunity to find out how smart they are), so it's absolutely clear she entered the impression these idiots ruls because the subtle way men come to dominate women in real life (sexual behaviour not excluded, not have to be explicit though), to the degree they make people think they share their things together (in fact that is all experiences, isn't it, so even if you are smarter you can get dumbify by the idiots around you, of course it has to do a bit with being a nice guy or not, but this mean shit, I know a lot of nice people boring to death)
so even if you think it's not sexual, it doesn't mean you are true
her statement on the asking of some1 (not me): I don't talk too much here anymore because the discussions are moved in other place. translation: I chill out and I do my philosophical way of talking abt things in locals, on the road and home, with a microscopical audience formed of a few people, who kinda inspire me especially by touching my hipotalamus because they give me the desire to get laid, affection and sex altogether; in this case the database of selection for quality rhetorics is as I said before fuckin' microscopical
here comed another essay, whatsoever, have to stop by now or purri will get on me with a load of RG shots

Otto Kuhnle won the Malcolm Hardee Award for best comic originality.

The award, which is awarded to a performer within a show, went to Kuhnle for his part in Abracadabra – German Humour Goes Global, which also stars Henning Wehn.

Obviously a couple of Germans are funny :P

um, what? the reason i put "(?!)" is because I was pretty much making sex (as in gender) a question as I wasn't really sure if thats what you meant. I have no idea what getting laid has to do with it either.

you think esr is a good place for any kind of debate? for me the only entertainment in that is reading them. you compare me to this girl on some forums... what kind of "intelligent" discussion am i trying to take part in?? I just said that Berlin would be cool and that Germans are crazy / funny. Think of things that are celebrated here - oktoberfest, love parade, carnival... coming from NZ yes these things are crazy for me!

I think you misunderstand my point. I'm a lot more shallow than you seem to think. and u would be totally wrong again in thinking that purri even gives a shit about people talking to me on esr.... there are more important things going on :P

I was coming with the analogy because the paradox with the theory saying that every person is unique, which have perfect logical sense, is so going the wrong turn in a reality full of patterns which effectively defy the rules of reality and by this, itself. Most of these pattrens I do find on women, dunno maybe men are subject to these patterns too but I don't kinda analyse men because I don't care about men, it's not an egoistic point of view like "you don't look to men because you would be scared to look inside you", it's just that I feel nothing towards them, it's just a natural response or better said lack of it. But these women I know, and I have to admit I know a lot -because I am some sort of modest profiler, someone said, lol -are all kinda acting the same, not honest and all that stuff, not because they want to but because their contradictory nature and mostly because they feel alone. These women would do anything just to get a little bit of attention, even lie. When truth won't help them, and it won't, because it is cold and don't care about right wrong tastes or any human invented value, there is one more alternative remaining. When some kind of form of lie is present, the interlocutors feel then something is not right, and then they try to find the true, and at least this way some kind of dialogue is establish. Of course that it's just a temporary way to keep people mind busy, but it usually works for its short proposed term, same like religion -you don't say your prays all day, just once-twice a day, isn't it? (generally speaking)
Ok what I was mambling here is that there are patterns there in nature everywhere, mostly because PI, hurray!

"you think esr is a good place for any kind of debate?"
see? where is in your opinion a good place for debate, at the coffee shop? exactly my point.

"u would be totally wrong again in thinking that purri even gives a shit about people talking to me on esr"
nah, it was a joke too, the real reason for me stopping to argue with you is by miles not that

why am I wasteing our time? ok I promise I won't reply anymore lol
as conclusion you did not convince me a bit I was not right on my theories =))

I don't know what your theories are but I do think you look much too deeply into this!

But yeah, ESR is really not any place i'd take up any debate as not to invite unwanted comments. If you really want to get your point across please feel free to PM me here or reach me on irc :)

You can buy sex toys from vending machines in toilets in the UK.

ooh haha i never saw that!

Of course that doesn't mean it was on the same level as it may be in Germany.

Seems to be more of a novelty thing.

Have you not been to The Netherlands?

Several times but I never saw that! In Germany I even saw it at the airport but all I saw at Schiphol was those toothbrushes that you eat.

I guess maybe I know different Germans :(

or tourist is just a prick

you only 'relocate' in the US so that answers your question. I have lived in LA for 3 months and it was better than on TV. At the same time, you cannot really live in an un-city like that. I've always wanted to hate the place I'm living in to have a reason to be grumpy. I can hook you up with a couple of good restaurants there though. Food really has improved. If you got the dough if you catch mah drift

might go to Australia next year or so

southern france!

people recommending the country they were born in kinda missed the point of the thread?

if anyone from france is reading this... how's life in nice/marseille? i want i) good weather ii) beaches iii) some sort of urban "culture" and preferably a city with at least 500k inhabitants so life doesn't get boring too easily.

now thinking about it i'd also prefer a city with a large university and an airport :S

only heard good things about toulouse so far

also <3 their rugby team

Moving permanetly:
1. Norway(Good wages, kind of as expensive as here)
2/3 Sweden, Denmark (simular to Iceland)
4. Scotland(Always wanted to live there+ I LOVE THE ACCENT)

Countries I want to visit for sight-seeing on vacation:
South America(most of the countries in that continent)
Japan
Australia
France
Italy

Countries I want to go to, to get shitfaceddd/Sightseeing

Europe:
Germany (Cheap beer)
Finland(Always wondered + cheap koskenkorva?)
Czech Republic(Cheap beer+ semi good looking women)

NA:
Canada
Mexico(cheeeap)

Asia:
China

I don't know about the other provinces, but alcohol in BC is fucking expensive. Costs $12 on average for a 6-pack at the liquor store here, $30ish for a 26 of liquor. $6 for a hi-ball at the bar is gross.

here it costs 25$ so I think I'll be alright 8)

North Korea - friendly place with small men in cool uniforms

IT'S A TARP!!1

UK
Canada
Sweden

You don't want to relocate here.

Dird, Aaron :DDD

Someday for me to relocate this places

Asia:

Japan (Culture & people)

South America:

All (very cheap) (Best place in term of natural beauty) (culture & people) (Adventure)

North America:

Mexico ( Very cheap too) (Beaches are most beautiful ive seen and Mayan Temples)(Culture & People) (Adventure)

Central America:

Guatemala,Salvador, Costa Rica (Same as SA & Mexico)

Europe:

Germany (Culture & People) (Party)
Spain (Party)
Sweden (Party)


Oceania:

Australia :DD

wtf happened to our reputation of being nasty, humorless motherfuckers with no sense for party?

Heh, I live now with two Germans that live up to the stereotype: unfunny, obsessed with work, they only eat sausages, their concept of partying is doing a BBQ at 7 o'clock in the afternoon, etc.

It's depressing, they are living in Spain in a flat with swimming pool and everything, 50m from the beach and lots of partying nearby and they never get out of the house (only to go to the office or Lidl).

I can't complain because they don't bother me and they even understand when I arrive with a bunch of drunktards at 6 in the morning and make a huge mess in the flat, but it's still sad :P

I'm relieved.

let me guess, maths/physics/engineers/IT nerds?

Kind of, yes, but they are the only ones like that. It's probably a coincidence, but it's still funny that they are so much like the German stereotype. If they went to the beach early in the morning to lay their towels near the water I'd seriously die of laughter.

chin beard + metal shirt? xD

Haha, I see where you are getting at, but no, far from it actually. They are into hip hop and that stuff.

That's still the UK opinion don't worry.

I'm relieved.


Though with the UK I wouldn't call it an opinion but a habit ;)

Australia
Iceland
New Zealand
Norway
Switzerland

give us back the fish you've been stealing for the last decades if you want your $ back !

Need another cod war I think.

I hope you don't give the money back, what did the people think would happen with such good interest rates?

Exactly, this is so ridicilous, Crazy brits thinking they can get their money back by investing/creating accounst in private owned banks when they go bankrupt.

Not exactly mr current affairs are you.

Iceland have already agreed to pay the money back over a month ago. At a cost of something like 10k person, no wonder they were raging and demonstrating against it :)

THat's why mums go to Iceland.

I know they have. That doesn't stop me being able to hope they don't bother.

iceland - best women

;>

iceland - cold

They're mostly inbred through, seriously you look at the total population is around 320,000, of which over 60% live in Reykjavík alone, in such a densely populated area with such a small population its a mathematical certainty that you'll end up crossing the blood lines way more than you should.

well the results from the inbreeding look quite good

EU: Spain, thats about it. Beautiful country, not too expensive, great people amazing history. The drive from Barcelona to Madrid was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. Maybe Sweden too, fun place but the long winters would take some getting used to, although I do have family there.

Rest of EU is just too caught up in American bashing as this website stands as a testament. I don't care how nice your country is, or the food or the women. No interest in any of it when I know as soon as I get there I'm just going to be pre-judged and people that don't know me whispering about me behind my back.

Asia: Japan = No because its too populated,
China = Hell no.
Korea, Maybe.
Singapore was awesome, I'd definitely like to live there for a time.

NA: NYC is the one place I'd like to spend some time in. A crash of cultures, all the history you could ask for and food/people from all parts of the globe.

Mexico, I don't think so, nice place but, not my kind of culture and the food gets kind of old after a while.

Canada, Vancouver YES, amazing city and nice people. Been to Edmonton which was kind of nice but also a bit boring. Toronto, and Montreal, didn't care for them, sort of reminded me of Detroit/Buffalo which I can't stand. Montreal had annoying stuck up anti american french there - which was basically like normal french people but not as well educated.

South America, never been but I'd like to go to Argentina the most, maybe Brazil and Chile.

Space: The possibilities are endless.

I bet if you lived on the moon (and had never stepped foot on the earth) the appeal of what is on earth would be infinitely more interesting than what you will ever see with recent/upcoming space technology/travel.

We're just too technologiclally inept to make space travel that exciting in our lifetime and I don't see this changing anytime soon.

The irony is most people never get to see the wonders of their own planet, which i'm sure is pretty insane in certain parts.

Maybe Canada or Australia for he opportunists (plus easy enough to get use to the new culture/customs and language vise)

But most likely just somewhere within Croatia (excellent climate (all 4 seasons..and no major natural disasters or deadly animals:) ), safety which a lot of ppl from really urban parts of eu/usa don't know what its like, quality food (meat/ vegetable/fruit)), very diversified in regions so u almost have all kinds of landscapes within 1:30h (seaside, mountains, hills, wide plains etc), good looking women, etc)
I mean ofc it has it faults, i'm not delusional.
