Where is everyone from?

vfriday · April 2011

West Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground was where I spent most of my days

Ok, not really West Philly, but a Philly girl nonetheless. Moved to Los Angeles 18 months ago.

A NY girl here! I grew up in Angola, a small town about 20 mins from Buffalo and is about 5 mins from Lake Erie. I would love to move but he never would.... So traveling it is. Las Vegas is like our 2nd home as well. We just went to Colorado a few months ago and I loved it!

Where did you go in Colorado? I absolutely love it here. I was only supposed to be here for one winter, that was over 10 years ago...

Lots of Bay Area gals on here! I live in San Francisco (born & raised in New York, went to school in Boston) and love it.

easullins · April 2011

Born and raised in the suburbs of Detroit. I would love to move to Oregon which is where I spent many summers during my childhood but know that will never happen. Now throughout the summer we escape to FI's cottage in northern Michigan or "up north" as us Michiganders refer to it, lol.

I have always wanted to introduce myself to a stranger with that, and see how long it takes for someone to catch on.

I've been in Vegas since '04, originally from Reno.

My parents are from and most of my family still lives in Escanaba.

junebug61103 · April 2011

Chicago suburbs...my whole life. Da Bears & Cubs baby : )

Fi is also from Chi....but he doesn't have the "Chicago accent"....think Mike Ditka...or Chris Farley as Mike Ditka on SNL.

shaq123 · April 2011

I am from Cleveland Ohio.

mizutamababy · April 2011

I was born and raised in Dallas, TX and wanted to see other places so I chose the University of Oregon and lived in Eugene, OR for most of my university life, had a one year stint in Tokyo, and now I live with FI in Shizuoka prefecture, Japan.

j_jaye · April 2011

I am in Australia...the nearest town to me that you would know is Melbourne. I have lived in sooo many places (by living I mean 1 year or more) England, Ireland, United Arab Emirates, Saudi, Cambodia, Thailand, New Zealand, Paupa New Guniea, East Timor, Switzerland and spent 1 year in Shaker Heights Ohio on high school exchange (it was either that or a catholic boarding school in Austria). For the last 3 years I have actaully stayed in one place but I soooo have itchy feet.

Yay for MN brides! I see your date is right around ours, how are your guests coming along with booking air? Airfare for our weekend has been horrible, $400 plus for decent times flying in and back for a Thurs. to Sun. I'm really starting to worry the flight prices aren't going to go down. You guys coming across that problem at all?

Oh and agreed on the Twins, however, not a good start here, grr.

Direy; we were outside of Denver. We went in Sept. for the motocross DES nations. Yea I could see myself living there. He has 2 cousins that moved there and never looked back. My niece is now looking at colleges there as well.

erinkay81 · April 2011

I'm also from Minneapolis- I grew up in South Minnepolis.
I moved to Arizona right after college. Like Sarah, loaded up my car and left.
I now live in North Phoenix and LOVE it! I'm assuming this is where we will stay here since FI loves his job here and his whole family is out here.
