Where would you live? Mrs Mitch has almost completed her masters degree, and as I’ve mentioned before, we’ve already got the option of emigrating to Oz, with firm job offers and family living out there (Melbourne). However, we also have the option of Canada or the states (the latter is still dependant on job offers). Where would you live, and why?

Barnsley.
Just because.

Wherever we choose yeti, I’ll make sure it has a big shed.

Canada

BC to be exact. Lovely part of the world. Nice folk too.

Canada…. snow and when there’s no snow there’s still lots of mountains to ride down on wheels

only way to tell is to pay for me to go and check out both locations for you.

Don’t know a great deal about the Melbourne area and US/Canada would be quite dependant on which area within those countries.

Northern Italy. Better climate, better mountains, better food.

😀 If you choose Canada make sure it’s well insulated. I hear it gets frickin cold and ‘brass monkeys’ levels of cold is not conducive to good stalkery.

I always wanted to live in Canada when I was a kid. I shoulda done it.

Certain parts of the US, or BC/Vancouver, probably. No idea re Aus, doesn’t appeal though.

Melbourne would be the easiest option, but I fancy somewhere with a bit of weather, so Canada / new england would probably fit the bill. I’ve been to Oz, and I liked it, also been to the states (new york) and I loved it, but going on holiday and going permanently are very different. Working in canada and the states is a major culture shock, or so I understand. Two weeks holiday a year? 😯

Okenagan Valley in Canada, less pricey and more laid back than Vancouver and far enough east to make access to other parts of Canada more accessible. 6 hour drive to Van/Whistler/Rockies and not too far over the border into the US. Also has a great wine producing region.

Canada has more public holidays iirc but with riding/winter sports like that on your doorstep holidays become less of an issue.

If you are not looking to change career then Kingston in Ontario seems to be where all the prisons are.

BC without a shadow of a doubt.

Berlin. Or Montreal. Hands down.

Right now? Anywhere nice and warm and sunny.

Ottawa seems really nice as well. BC is expensive as far as housing goes.

Well top level I would put the US and Canada way before Oz.

However, as per above, it depends on where.

I would take San Fran over Sydney
Melbourne over Miami
Montreal over Houston
Denver / Melbourne

etc etc etc.

inverness…….or the surrounding area.

Umbria

Well, that’s where I’m going in 2015

it has everything you could possibly need 🙂

I do love Italy, but would struggle to find work there – I’m a psychiatric nurse, MrsMitch is an Occupational therapist specialising in mental health, both of which can be difficult when English is your first language – I think it would be nigh on impossible with a language barrier as well.
