Re: Where have you lived?
 
[QUOTE=purple80;8336020][COLOR="Indigo"]I had moved around the UK a lot before deciding to move to Canada, I initially wanted to go to France which is where my parents, sister and her husband where heading to. We decided that France was not for us, having had the Canada discussion years previously, we looked at Canada again.

My OH had moved around a fair bit with work, promotions to other areas, did this make us more likely or open to the idea of relocation to a foreign country?

So where have you lived?

Kingston-Upon-Thames UK
France
Brussels, Belgium
Tokyo, Japan
Malvern, Worsc UK
Hong Kong
Mississauga, Ont
Lennoxville, Qc (for college.. got kicked out for partying too much LOL)
Montreal, Qc
Quebec City ( awful place.. dont get me going)
Montreal, Qc (amazing)
