    Where are you from?

    Making a poll with all the countries would obviously be impossible so i'll just make one with the continents.

    if you can, please specify your country of origin in your post ( don't just vote; post )

    Most people should already know, but i'm from Portugal

    I like that the Americas are lumped together. I see..I see how it is...discrimination against the Western World from the Old World and the East. We may be uncivilized, barbaric savages, but we have feelings too!

    As indicated to the immediate left below my avatar, I am from the United States.

    By the way, isn't there some pushpin map feature web app we can utilize for more accurate regional details?

    I come from the United States and from the central part of it. However, we're experiencing some cold spells, so most of the surroundings are pretty frozen.
    I am training in the shadows.

    I live in the United States of America, the city of Augusta, in the state of Georgia to be more specific. The Masters Golf Tournament starts three months from today, which means major traffic on Washington Road for me.

    Oceania->Australia-> State of Queensland-> Capital: Brisbane

    A tad hot there, but we've been getting some breeze lately, which is always welcome.

    I dare say Queensland, as a state, is the best tourist destination here, aside from other major cities. Our beef is awesome, and it's your only place to try kangaroo without excessive import premiums!

    Telecommunications is expensive, but pretty reliable. Waiting lists are long, so either don't get sick, buy some hefty travel insurance, or bring a doctor! (Or, in a few years time, call Bill )

    But being completely surrounded by water and having no land borders with neighbouring countries and stringent custom regulation means we're low on (disease)bugs like anything, so no prior vaccinations required.

    None of those maggots that burrow into your brain, ya know. There are huge, bloodsucking horseflies that bite like a bitch though. But they're slow and noisy, just listen out for them and keep a boomerang ready.

    Traffic sucks when golf tournaments hits. I heard georgia is a beautiful state and have nice size houses. A lot of my friends had moved there, but some moved back cause they said it's very hard to find a job there

    I live in the USA the city of Lauderhill state of florida, orginally from NYC. Despite the winter season its pretty much sunny all the time long which can sucks from time to time. Just imagine it's rainging and the sun still shining and it's still hot wtf lol

    Europe -> Nordic countries -> Finland.

    We're experiencing our usual weather, so all of the surroundings are completely frozen.

    You should come live in Victoria, Bill. We don't have any of the bad stuff you mentioned!

    It was nice and cool here today. Warm sun but a cool breeze, and no humidity.
    I think I know precisely what I mean

    I live in South Korea now, in a suburb of Seoul, but originally from Chicago, Illinois, United States of America...and oddly enough, I miss the snow and cold there.

    Been thinking about taking a trip to Portugal. I've been told its a beautiful and "fun" place to go ^__^.

    Poland, Gdańsk. Theoretically great touristic attraction(the whole tri-city, or trójmiasto as we call it here(Gdańsk-Sopot-Gdynia)), but it lacks major events. Anime conventions are usually on the southern or middle part of country.

    Most of you already know I'm from Singapore. And Singapore is not a district in China. I just learnt thru that wiki link that Singapore is the 5th wealthiest country in the world in terms of GDP (PPP) per capita. Yay.

    I'd be very surprised if there were African people on GW.

    Weird, same setup here, except I currently live in Iraq. And my family is from Vietnam, but I've only visited once and don't speak the language.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    My parents have visted there and they love it. Along with Hong Kong. I can't wait to visit it myself. =)

    I like Gotwoot so much, I almost voted. But I try not to tell people my location. They tend not to believe me, or assume some rubbish that ends up annoying or upsetting me. =/
