I live in Bloomfield, which is Essex County. I'm about 5 or 10 minutes from Montclair State if that helps.

Anywhere that is cold most of the year! I would love more than anything to go back to Alaska and build a cabin up there or at least use it as a summer vacation house Maybe one day

I would love to live in Europe somewhere, anywhere! Not permanetly, but for a couple of years.

Alaska? Winterpeg would suffice. I think it's cold 7 or 8 months a year here. It also gets to -40°F in the winter. Is that cold enough for you?

Ahh yes, bikini weather!! I would love it! I miss the days when we had to plug our cars in! When we left alaska we got many raised eyebrows while people wondered why the heck we had a power cord coming out the front of our car!

LOL! You should have told them that you had a rechargeable car! I worked outside for two of our coldest winters in the mid 90's. In the first one, we had to plug in our trucks every single day. This is usual fare, but even then, some of these brand new trucks wouldn't start. It was brutally cold. We always get weather like that, but it was just so long that winter. I'd rather live somewhere warmer, but I'll actually be making a lateral move to a city with similar weather.

I couldnt imagine actually being outside working in that weather. Going for a walk or outside to play in the snow would be okay. I just want to live somewhere that cold so I can sit in front of a fireplace cuddled up, drinking cocoa and watch a movie... Look one direction and see snow and ice... look the other way and see fire! Fun!

So... you are moving??

Australia or a nice little Caribbean island !

I would LOVE to live in Victoria, BC, here in Canada. Perhaps when I retire -- finding a good job there is next to impossible.

I would also like to live on the east coast. One of our Maritime provinces would suffice as well.

I wouldn't live anywhere other than Canada. Though I wouldn't mind visiting Israel for a couple of months.

Costa Rica!

Ideally I'd like to move back down to Central Jersey, but I'll be staying in North Jersey for a while.

More power to ya! I have lived in central NJ for most of my life (lived in Florida for 5 years) and I can't wait to get out!! In fact, you can have my place!

Although, I must admit I don't know if I can survive without the pizza.


I would love to live in Georgia. Savannah specifically.

Or some tropical island.

I would love to live in Australia, New Zealand, Scotland or Ireland.

Flagstaff, Arizona! I love the southwest. You could go skiing in the middle of winter wearing only a sweater, then drive a couple hours and hike around the desert, then drive a little ways and be in Mexico, then drive a little more and be in California. I love the idea of being around every type of outdoor activity imaginable and having such temperate weather.

In the US, I am firmly planted in/loving/native to Chicago, but I could handle NYC. Nothing smaller than these babies for me, please!

Outside, though, hmmm...I'd love to live in Germany or France, although I've heard Paris is kind of dirty. I'd also love to know my relatives in Italy and sort of know my heritage and where it all started for my family. Also, Sweden. They have IKEA, H&M and public health care and it isn't 9,000 degrees and humid for a solid 3 months. What more could you possibly want in the world?!!?

Oh, man. That's another thing. Chicago-style pizza is so good that I'm known to go freegan for it on occassion. I spent a month in Muncie, IN this summer, which was completely nice except for one thing...I don't know how they find that pizza even remotely acceptable

So I hear ya on the allegance to your home-town cuisine!

My next move will be somewhere with more precipitation (I live right against the Eastern Slope in Colorado, USA, and it's actually classified as a desert). I'm originally from Washington State, right on the Puget Sound. I miss the green and the smell of rain. Here, it's dead and brown 9 months of the year, and that's depressing.

I've always loved Ireland, because my family is very Irish, and it just seems like it would be a good place for me.

Honolulu was nice, but I'm not sure that I could live anywhere that warm. With AC I could do it. I could defilitely live in DC or NYC. After my year in Atlanta, I'm very much a big city gal.

I'd also like to live in Italy for a while, because it seems like such an amazingly vibrant country. The heat, though...
