Australia yes but the city no, give me the wild side of life and the indigenous people.
One thing that would put me off is the way that the Aboriginal are looked down upon, I mean WTF its their country.

Yer and historys not been kind to them, I was driving from Cains to Alice springs in a 4x4. On the first night I kipped in the van in the out back, it was so dark me and the israel girl i was traveling with desided to pull up next to some trees (if you can call them that).
Next day there was hundreds of Aboriginal kids outside playing all round the van. When we got out we realised we'd parked next to one of there camps. Quite daunting really all the the mums and dads just a little way off, and we where the centre of attention.
Couldnt think of anything to say so quickly left them to there own business!  good times

I have to say that the landscape up your way is the best in England. I grew up in the Durham area and I've been a biker for over 30 years and I love the north east and west The lakes are beautiful, the twisty roads through the Pennines.
If I headed south there were the long winding roads over the moors and heading north the run to Hadrians Wall and back is spectacular.
The whole of the North is the reason I fell in love with the best thing in my life , motorcycles ...

Well I was thinking a pacific island or something, but im sure at some point you'd be over the beaches and landscape, I need fat events and shows to go to.
Im thinking Thailand or Cambodia if I were to go anywhere id want to have to make some radical life style changes, live a totally new non western life.

I live in Belgium. F*cked up cannabis policy.
I would rather move to Finland. Just love that country: nice women, wonderfull nature. I would like to go live in a small village away from town. And grow my own herbs.

I think that I would want to stay in the USA ,but maybe go up to the mountains. If we just lived by the constitution I think the USA would be the perfect place to live.

How about what the Americans did to there First Nations, they tried to kill them all! Canada also treated our First Nations poorly, but there is some progress being made but it is a long way away considering how much in poverty most of the reserves are in. But the First Nations around where I am are the second wealthiest Band in Canada, they are wealthier than the majority here.
I wouldn't want to leave Canada, but if I did it would be for Australia.

Yes and all for money, gold and land, the way i see it is it all belongs to the people that were the inhabitants of any country before they were invaded by other countries.

Seahouses is a nice place Beadnell is also, there are plenty places in Northumbria that are good.
I had motobikes when i was younger and i was always on Westgate in the bike shops.

I've lived half my life on one side of the world and half on the other. I'd say it doesn't matter where you live as long as you have great friends.
Of course, some places are probably better than others.

I wouldn't change a damn thing.
I love living in the U.S. and I wouldn't have it any other way. I am very grateful I reside here.
But I guess if I absolutely had to choose I would pick Australia.
