Snarky Brides

If you could live anywhere...

... where would it be?

Purely based on a place you love. No worries about money, jobs, housing, etc.

Also, is this just a place you think would be great, or have you actually been there?

Re: If you could live anywhere...

  • I actually found a condo in Manhattan that is pretty much exactly what I want. It has a view of the city on one side and a view of the river on the other. I'm in love with it.

    I've never been there, though, so I'm just assuming it would be awesome, but I'm pretty pick about climate, so who knows.

  • Ahh- Back to Seattle where I was stationed..or across the sound from it anyway.
  • I think I'd love to have a brownstone in Brooklyn.

    Otherwise, a house on the outskirts of Philly.

  • I have a few places:
    Casey Key, Florida. It's beautiful there, not crowded with tourists, and the houses are ridonkulous.
    Key West- Never been there, but still. It's Key West.
    Barcelona- I loved this place so much. I'd give anything to live there for a few years.
    Baden-Baden, Germany- Never been, but Germany intrigues me, especially this area.
  • Me too, Led...me too.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: If you could live anywhere... : One of my brothers lived in Hawaii for about 15 years and it was exxxxppppeeeensive!  And if you're a punctual person, you would not fit in there.  My brother fit perfectly; he has absolutely no concept of time. But Calistoga would be lovely.  I would be a total wino.

    Yeah we stayed there for a week a few years ago. It's more us then any other place. And we know how expensive it is, but she said if price was no object. So I'm taking her at her word. She's paying isnt she?

  • J - one of the two counties here with rattlesnakes is Winterset. Where is Winterset, you ask? Right the eff next to us.

    And I was so happy to move to a state with no rattlers.

    I love you Missy. Even though you are not smart enough to take online quizzes to find out really important information. ~cew
  • Oahu, no question, somewhere in a newer house on the Ewa Plain area of the leeward side.  I would love to have some more interesting nature to go explore, water to play in, NO WINTER.  I really need to be closer to good seafood.  It's not far out of the realm of possibility to make it happen there either, we've been talking about it, it'd be nice to make a try of it in the next 5 years.  Even though it's super spendy, I think that would create less of a desire to shop so we'd live a simpler life, spend our money on the essentials rather than the crap that we do here now.

  • Yeah, we have them around here too, but they're so very rare.  The biggest snake I've ever seen in the wild was a foot (or so) long garter snake, and that was enough to make me cry.  I don't do well with creepy crawlies.

  • I'd love to live in Alaska again. I don't do the winters there too well tho. I grew up in the desert, so it's a bit of an adjustment.
    I'm not good at feelings.

    Mega Millions here is at 79M right now. Add in the 8M from from the lotto and that might cover quite a few houses. I need your secret system!

  • I would love to live on an island. Someplace warm and live a simple life. I dont have a specific place in mind, just a dream. My FI and I have been joking that if we fall in love with St. Lucia on our honeymoon then we should just pick up and move there. I'd get a job doing jet ski's tours and he would do massages on the beach (he is a chiropractor) We will be on our honeymoon in 23 days so if you never see me on the boards again you know we got up the courage and did it! LOL
  • I would love to live in London actually. I'm kind of bored of the US!

  • Seattle!  Visited there this summer and we absolutely fell in love!
