I was born in Los Angeles, CA, and lived 9 years in Orange County.
I lived 11 years in Sheridan, WY and graduated from school there.
I did 20 years in the Navy, and visited 19 countries - most by ship.
Duty stations out of the USA that I lived in included Diego Garcia BIOT, southern Spain, downtown London, the island of Crete, and Puerto Rico.
I was also in San Diego twice, and Key West and San Francisco bay area. There was lots of temporary duty and travel all over the place in the US.
When I left the service I did almost two years in the Tacoma, WA area, then moved to Las Vegas, NV where I have been since January 2007.
Loved all the overseas duty (highly recommended) but America is my home.
Though I prefer the West, the best place to live is - wherever my kids are.

This is no longer a "What if" question for me. Vietnam is the new place to live. The country is absolutely beautiful. With miles of white sand beaches, cool mountain hideaways, Great city night life and cozy country inns. It’s very inexpensive. You can get nice hotel rooms for $10 and beer is 15 cents a glass. The people are wonderful. I have traveled just about everywhere and I ended up buying a home here because I like it so much. Flights from almost any where are around $1000 USD. You more than make up the difference with the inexpensive lodging etc. Also, you are close to Thailand, Cambodia , (Angkor Wat) Lao, Hong Kong, A ticket to Kuala Lumpur is about $50, Lots to do and plenty to see. Check it out.
You will never regret it if you come to Vietnam. . Great food, amazingly wonderful people. We stopped our bikes at the end of the road by the river the other day. Out in the middle of no where. In minutes we were surrounded by kids saying "hello, Where you from?" the mothers came out a few minutes later and they are bringing out food and laughing. A few minutes later the men came out bringing the rice wine. We had a full on party going and didn't understand much of what was going on. But... we knew that they were really friendly and they treated us like Rock Stars. Just amazing. Don't miss Vietnam. It will be your best trip ever. I promise.
I bought a house here and now have a small book store and a Jet ski operation that caters to the tourist trade. good friends and a laid back life style. it just wonderful.
Obviously this is a question that can have many answers. You love where you live and most people do. My health was suffering in the states and the more peaceful life style here helps me live the type of life that I have always wanted.
