San Francisco
- This is a great place to converse with people and have fun. The weather can be chilly at times, but you will have an ultimate day every day in this widely-spread city.

Kac, Vojvodina, Serbia and Montenegro.
- I'll be honest, If you want to live in Belgrade or Sarajevo [Bosnia] or any other capital city in europe expect the bills for accomodation, food and shopping to be extremely high because it is in the city. Vojvodina is located in central Serbia, and It's a very multi-cultrual place, people are nice and friendly and it's actually affordable. If you can't speak the language that's OK because most people speak and understand English. Honestly, Serbia is a very poor country, since it has gone the the horrific economical changes and war.. etc. Most people have left the country because they just can't afford to live there anymore, 97% of people re-visit for holidays each year because they like to see the 'balkan mountains', the city and what the country is like. I hope you give Serbia a chance, It's an amazing country and It's worth a shot :)

Eureka, California!!
- NOT Serbia. This small town of 30,000 is very safe, has a diverse population, laid-back and is the best-kept secret of coastal CA. Where else do Redwoods and Palm Trees grow side-by-side? I highly suggest this location.

Serbia
- Hey Shadowgirl and Suzanna. Can one of you two contact me for more information. I am looking to move to Serbia and have many questions to ask. I hope one of you ladies will have the time of day to at least answer some of them :)

Atlanta, Georgia
- Atlanta Georgia is the best place to live if you want a New-York City feel without the crowded streets.Plus you have home-town southern cooking too! Yum!

Serbia
- I agree with Suzana, Serbia is the best place to live in, especially southern part called Vojvodina! People are very friendly and relaxed. Weather is nice and nature so beautiful. From the plains of Vojvodina to many mountains and lakes or reservoirs and ski resorts of outstanding beauty. All my friends from abroad love this country and they wish to live in it. I guess whoever comes to Serbia once wants to come again. Belgrade is rated the best party city in Europe. Anyway...if you cannot live in Serbia at least come to visit it, you'll be very happy :)))

Tucson , AZ
- I love the sunny weather and am enchanted by the desert with the majestic saguaros, surrounded by mountains. There are endless places to enjoy the natural beauty. It is big enough to have all the cultural amenities you might want but is not too big to feel overwhelming. The cost of living is reasonable and the people are very, very friendly!

- The best place to move is westcoast, my reason there are more opportunities for the children. What I look for in a state are the relationship the community have with Law Enforcement, I look at how many complaints have been brought up against the police dept. was anything done about the situation. I look at the politics in the area I wish to move into. If the people are friendly then thats a go.

Vancouver, Canada!
- Okay, so it rains a lot and people complain that the skytrain doesn't run all night (it should!) and that housing is really expensive, but despite those issues, Vancouver is a great place to live. Where else can I ski in the morning and sail in the afternoon? Not that I do that, but it's an option. There are lots of biking trails, hiking trails, beaches, and wildlife, all within a few miles of my home. So it all depends on what you're looking for. For me, I love being outside, dressing casually and being able to cycle to work.

New York City
- OK, housing is expensive and some areas are pretty noisy. But for my money, give me New York City. There's a vibrant culture here that you can't find anywhere else. There's diversity in people, food, music, religion, language...everything, really. And convenience! My out-of-town friends still can't believe we can have anything from home improvement supplies to ice cream delivered to our front door.

San Francisco
- SF is my favorite city, or for that matter, any city within the Bay Area; so much to do, great weather and close proximity to beaches, mountains and wineries. It has everything I'm looking for as part of a young couple just starting out.
