I'm from Toronto, Canada, but now I live near Frankfurt am Main Germany. Frankfurt hosts one of the biggest book expos in the world every fall and the city is alive with words for a week. The rest of the time, it's all about banking and money. It's really, really boring 51 weeks of the year.
I was born in Calvert County Maryland - approximately 1 hour south of The White House. I have lived in St. Mary's County MD, Huntsville, AL, Cape Canaveral, FL, & Birmingham AL. But as of 2-1/2 years ago I now live in Dallas, TX - just north of the city.

Western Massachusettes. It's very rural and from my house I can hear the river across the street.
Forest Hills, NY--one of the five boroughs comprising NYC.

Western Mass for me too! Not quite so rural though. I am in Hampden County.
Its always fun to see where everyone is from! Home for me was Minneapolis/St. Paul MN - 32 years. My husband was from Champaign Illinois. Now we live in Omaha Nebraska area, having arrived via 4 yrs in California, north of Santa Barbara, and 6 yrs in Great Falls Montana.
Waikiki. Husband and I retired here from Seattle to get away from rain all year, rain rain rain. Today for example it was 80. In December.

I live in Manchester Center, Vermont; originally from NYC
I feel a bit of an outsider! I'm from Italy

Are you really ready to hear it?In Perugia we are almost all certain that it was a "play" ended badly - sex, drugs, things like that were common in their house. The three involved are the ones who probably are connected with it - who actually murdered her I think no one will ever know!!! - but Meredith was not a "santarellina" as we say: she was part of that game whch no one immagined could go that bad.
But the trial was, I think, right: the "legal prooves" were non existant: nobody could be convicted with what the police had on hands.
The "sad" thing, or one of the sad thing in this hell of a confusion, is that only the black boy is now paying for everybody...

And Marlis..." I had the pleasure of visiting my birth place, again, about ten years ago on a vacation back there. I didn't know until then, that it was in the middle of china town.
Live in Franklin, Ma, but have also lived in Texas and New Hampshire
Born and raised in New Jersey but went to college in Colorado which then caused a move to Washington State for many years and then back to Colorado! It's been quite the variety!
I live in Pittsburgh, PA near the airport area
I'm originally from southern Virginia, but am currently on a military base in Northern Virginia.
