  Start with a checklist. Add things like, the kind of weather you would like to experience most of the year, are you more of a coastline kina person or more inland person, does it matter to you that you’re near outdoor activates year round or not at all, do you desire to live in a city or a town, what hobbies are you wanting to participate in where you live next, etc, etc.

    good idea.

    i have a list, but i have a lot of contradictions - love theater, live music, and cultural diversity, don’t like congrsted cities. i like warm beaches and snorkeling and generally prefer rainy and cloudy cold weather and need some mountains kind of contradictions. the list is long, but it’s a good excuse to go live in different places until one clicks.

      From what you described, you should check out the Pacific Northwest.

        thanks, I like Portland a lot and that’s in the running for sure.

        i don’t know if i want the perpetual rain though since i love riding my ebike around, and i actually haven’t been to the Oregon coast. maybe i should head back and do some more live-in research.

  I’d go for scandiavia, if I could choose anywhere. Or Island, working for CCP is my dream job.

    What CCP are you referencing?

      EVE is one of the most unique games I’ve ever seen and I admire it, and CCP in general, from what I’ve seen in their volunteer programs or from streams, seems like a nice workplace.

      Also, Island is cool.
