A pretty active country, considering all those winter sports they have plus the other ones. And speaking of winter, it's really beautiful in Canada during that time of year as the grass is covered by a white blanket and water is frozen like ice cold gems. The mountains in the North are very beautiful as well. Not to mention the wonderful and kind people (well, at least most of them). Great country! :D

I visit here a lot. It's beautiful, the people are wonderful, they care about nature. Vancouver is one of my favorite cities of all time.

I honestly can't vote for just one. Canada, Germany, Scotland, Australia, Japan and a number of others.
I voted America because some it's a lot like England, where I live, it's welcoming, multicultural, and has many things to see and do! I would go to the place which is most dissimilar from the Deep South, though. If anyone knows which part of America that is, leave it below.
But I'm not definitely saying America. The countries that I mentioned above are still places that I would go to. One of few things stopping me from going to somewhere like Germany or Japan is that I don't know the languages, and it would take years for me to perfect it.

If the good people of the US of A would accept a reserved but ever-so-slightly crazy Englishwoman, I could certainly make it my home for a very long time.

Good place especially The Northeast whoever wanted to live somewhere other than the Deep South

Please end my suffer
I need to go to the USA
I can't stand Brazil anymore
Help God help.

I've always wanted to live in London. Perfect temperature, generous people and great music. Instead, I live in stupid America, where it is either extremely hot or extremely cold, the ones who harm others get off scot free while the innocent get blamed and everyone is either obese, buff or does nothing but brag about this "amazing country" they live in.

England deserves the top spot. Inventors of world-changing inventions - the list is too long to go into. It is a tiny country but is poweful and always in the world media. It's beautiful, historical, modest, funny, intelligent. Why wouldn't people not want to make a home, family and a life there. I'm from poland and dream of going to England.

England rules! Haha, I've always wanted to live in london. Plus I love the british accents. Beautiful country land, beautiful homes, so much history, good food, nice people, ugh I could go on. But definitely england.

But one reason I want to live in the Philippines is because this is the only country in the world where there are 95 million Filipinos.
