If you had to leave your country...

[ultrachicken]

Canada or Sweden. They're relatively uninvolved in world affairs, and well, they seem like comfortable places to live in.

 

[S.R.S.]

Somewhere other than Australia?

New Zealand, mainly becuase that's where I came from and could probably swim there.

 

[thenumberthirteen]

I'd go to Australia if it wasn't for all the deadly animals and game censorship. Maybe Canada. sure they have bears, but you're unlikely to find one in your boot.

Actually I like Iceland. I've only been there on Holiday, but it looks like a beautiful country.

 

[mikecoulter]

There are a few places that come to mind. Either the USA, Canada, New Zealand or Brazil. I'll probably be moving to one of these within the next 5-10 years. The UK is honestly, honestly terrible.

 

[DoctorNick]

Well, get me a ticket for the Australia bandwagon.

Why? Because it is a first world country that has plenty of open space, something that seems to be a bit of a rarity in many places these days. This matters to me because in the long run I'd like to have my, uh, 'compound' somewhere remote enough that I won't be bothered and it seems like someplace such as Coober Pedy [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coober_Pedy] or the Pilbara region [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilbara] would probably fit the bill.

Mmmm, solar powered atmospheric moisture-extractors [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_water_generator] and underground construction, here I come!

I would totally run a Dune LARP... [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larp]

Spoiler: Also, I'd move there to piss off these people.

EDIT:
Oh, I'd probably also try to raise dingoes. [http://www.abc.net.au/reslib/200803/r232047_927789.jpg] No idea how well that would work, but by god I'd try.

 

[Skoldpadda]

So, uh, nobody moving to Belgium?

 

[Trotgar]

Sweden or Britain.

Sweden is closer to Finland, and even though many finns slander Sweden, quite a many things are better there. I also speak Sweden a bit. Very little, though.

Britain, because I've always been interested in it, and I speak English quite well.

 

[reg42]

Berlin! I love that place. Everyone was so damn friendly. And there was a hardcore gig about 100 metres down the road from my hostel. Fuck yeah.

 

[Red Bomb]

Well Im Australian but live in England so does it count if I say 'go back to..' Australia? I cant stand the cold and the constant rain for 6 months of the year.
But if I can have that I'll choose Italy.

 

[dragcrew]

Simple question: if you had to leave your country and pick another country to stay in for the rest of your life, where would you go?

I'd go to australia. It's safe, comfortable, christmases are 10x more awesome, and I can spend the rest of my days finding and harassing yahtzee until he replaces the imp character with my face and kills it.

hahahah i completely agree, in fact thats my life goal!

But if i had to leave australia i would probably go to America or Japan, both are centres of amazing technology and I think I could fit in with both crowds

 

[Dauntlessidiot]

Canada, British Columbia...

 

[Kaymish]

id have to jump across the ditch to Australia because its only got 2 things wrong with it 1 they have no r18+ rating so i will have to turn to smuggling and they call ordinary things by funny names like doona for duvet and eskie for chilly bin so i will have to learn new names for stuff but other wise they are not so bad plus all my friends have to do is get the `$28 or so air fares from Auckland to where ever is cold enough for me to settle

 

[spinFX]

Cananda. Western. Liberal. Technologically, economically and infrastructurally (I make up words, you read 'em, deal?) sound.

Same deal for Sweden except the high cost of living would be ball breaking.

 

[Broady Brio]

America. Now before you laugh I have 2 reasons.

1)College there would so much funnier.
2)I will atcually distinguish the nerds, jocks and preps very distinctinvely.

 

[Shepard's Shadow]

Canada or maybe Switzerland. Its hard to choose between those two.

 

[SextusMaximus]

I shall go to Ireland!

I have a lot of stalking to do...

This, as Ireland is where all the cool people who beat each other up at pubs live.

And I thought I'd gone back in time when I saw your avatar.

 

[Alpha Centauri]

Wow lots of people are saying canada, i like that. For me, Greece, the women, the salad, the nice weather, and the history, yummy.

 

[whittaker]

Sweden or Scotland.

Sweden because...dammit, everything just works! And everyone speaks English there too, or everyone I've met anyway.

Scotland because it's very similar to Ireland, especially the further North you get. It and Oop North are the only places in Britain that didn't bore the shit out of me.

GREETINGS FROM SWEDEN!
WE ARE CLOSED AT THE MOMENT DUE TO SEVERAL SEVERE BLIZZARDS WHICH HAVE TAKEN THE COUNTRY BY SURPRISE THIS LAST MONTH.

THIS VIDEO WAS CAPTURED ON THE 2:ND OF FEBRUARY THIS YEAR. THE SNOW HAVEN'T MELTED YET AND SINCE THEN WE HAVE RECEIVED AN ADDITIONAL THREE FEET, WITH ANOTHER FEET EXPECTED TO FALL ON MONDAY.

Other than that it is quite comfy here

/The Native

OT: Canada, 'cause it sounds like Sweden, only bigger and cheaper.

 

[Sark]

New Zealand, Canada, England, Scotland, Ireland or maybe the United States. Any of these would be fine.
