It seems like most people I know intend to live in their hometown their whole lives. At most a person is willing to move to another part of their own country, preferably where they have family. Still more rare are those who want to spend more than a few months in another country. Which are you and why?

Canada. Best place on earth.
Canada is a well developed and stable democratic country. It has a strong economy, with a positive balance of payments, a strong currency and a high standard of living. It has been ranked the best country, or among the best countries, by the United Nations Human Development Report for the last 6 years. The report is based on life expectancy, educational opportunities, income and other measures of the quality of life.
Beautiful Country
With beautiful cities, rich with diverse cultures, Canada is one of the most splendid countries; it has some of the world's most extraordinary mountain ranges, prairies, rivers, lakes, and forests. Canada's cities range from large industrial cities to suburban farm lands. The country has immigrants from Africa, Asia, Europe, America, and just about everywhere. Their individual cultures and views are respected and show-cased throughout the country. Our government has laws to protect and encourage immigrants to maintain their own beliefs. With the lowest crime rate in the industrial countries and a reputation of being free from divisiveness and strife, Canada is a wonderful place to live.
Children's Right to Education
All children have a right to go to school, and Canada ensures that all children are given this right, by offering free public schools up until the high school level. Canadian residents are eligible for subsidized University-level education. The Canadian education system is very well recognized throughout the world.
Health Care System
The modern health care system is among the best in the world, and is offered to all Canadian residents. The average life expectancy of a Canadian is 76.5 years.
A New Life
In Canada you can start a new life, with endless opportunities ahead of you. The country offers support to every individual, trying to make sure that every citizen feels at home. Make Canada your new home, and it'll be a life changing experience that you'll never forget.

To me it doesn't really matter where I live. I have lived in different parts of the Netherlands and now I'm preparing things to immigrate to Arizona US because My husbands family lives there and if in the years to come we will move away to another place again I just pick my things and go.
I can adjust myself pretty easy and I like to change places a lot instead of settling down permanently.

I've lived in the same town for my entire life. I love the United States, but if I had the wherewithal, I'd be on the first plane bound for Ireland or Scotland. The land is so lush and green,so old and full of stories, and I really like to listen to the Irish and Scottish people speak.

I want to move near the coast. Life is more relaxed than living in a city, but the city I live in is changing for the worst and I don't want to bring my sons up here anymore. Even better would be to live in Australia or New Zealand where these countries are more family orienated.

There's a whole new world outside of our own. People choose to stay within their comfort zone but there's much to learn in another part of the country, or another country. Different people, different cultures and habits.

I'm definitely not from the first group. My family has moved numerous times throughout my childhood, and it has been a lot of fun. Right now they are in Colorado and I think they are there to stay. So someday my dream is to move down there too...I live in Oregon right now.

A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife
stayed home. He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed:
"Dear Lord: I go to work every day and put in
8 hours while my wife merely stays at home.
I want her to know what I go through, so please
allow her body to switch with mine for a day. Amen.
God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish. The next
morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman.
He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids,
Set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed their lunches,
Drove them to school, came home and picked up
the dry cleaning, took it to the cleaners
And stopped at the bank to make a deposit, went grocery shopping,
Then drove home to put away the groceries,
Paid the bills and balanced the checkbook.
He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.
Then it was already 1 P.M. and he hurried to make the beds,
do the laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor.
Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with
them on the way home.
Set out milk and cookies and got the kids organized to do their homework,
Then set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the ironing.
At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for salad,
breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper.
After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded
laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed. At 9 P.M. he was exhausted
and, though his daily chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was
expected to make love, which he managed to get through without complaint.
The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said,
Lord,
I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my wife’s being
able to stay home all day. Please, oh please, let us trade back."
The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied, "My son, I feel you have learned
your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way they were.
You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You got pregnant last night."
