    Somewhere that smelled nice and didn’t have much pollen: the Colorado Rockies, Buenos Aires or Patagonia.

    Sassbot, funny you say that. Portland, OR is my pick too. Although I think that I would drive Rick and Amy nuts… scope his blog too:

    Seattle!! Only for a few years though. I feel like SF is one of those guys you date and tell them that you wish you met them later in life but that you just can’t get married yet. I really like it here, but I need to see what else is out there.

    Zacatecas? Washington DC Metro Area? Minneapolis? Luckily, I do not have to make this theoretical move. I like it where I am.

    You mean, from the couch?…

    Cahuita, Costa Rica… fell in love with this place last November, and I wish I could take all my friends there at least once… and now I’m getting an itch to visit Buenos Aires… you down, Phil?

    SF has always been my first choice in the US, but I’ve never been to Portland, Seattle, or NY. I guess it’s time to hit up Priceline.

    Were I younger I would say Tokyo, London, New York.

    Now that I am an oldo I am thinking more the verdant hillsides of the Ukas, Manoa Valley HI, or maybe rural Japan.

    I’m finally moving to SF this summer. I thought it wouldn’t happen, but it finally is.
    So with that being my new home, I’d move to Paris. I can speak the language and I especially like the country. I’d get sick on purpose just to experience the French health system.

    This is tough to answer, since I’ve not visited many places.

    However, in no particular order:
    Seattle, Sausalito, Vancouver, Bermuda, Another tropical locale (with slightly less rain and fewer tropical depressions.)
