But look where you picked to live in the states.... I would be too.
Come try Boston or NYC, or San Fran...
I've been all over the states, and this area (New England) is still my favorite.

And unless you had like US$80 to cover the exchange rate, you'd stay hungry, too.

No kidding. Guess I'll have to make my own...
I agree, I love the Northeast. NYC and San Francisco are nice places to visit, but I've always had a sort of secret desire to live in Boston. I hope to make my way out there eventually. In the meantime, though, Kansas City is a nice place to live.

Yeah, Boston is my favorite city in the U.S., not just because I live on its outskirts. It has a charm that many places lack, and a European feel that the majority of American cities don't.
I would be perfectly content (and plan on) living in Boston or its suburbs when I have to settle down. In fact, where I live now ain't that bad. 45 minutes from the city (30 if you do 100MPH on the Mass Pike, which IS possible), good jobs, good education institutions, and plenty of things to do. Sure we have "projects" and "ghetto" sections, but we also have lovely upper-class suburban neighborhoods. A good combination indeed.

If I remember correctly, don't you live in Worcester? I think that deserves a little more credit than just being called the "outskirts of Boston". 🙂

Yeah, I do. But like I said, it's not far at all, and plenty of people make the commute daily. 🙂

I love Canada. I went to Toronto last summer for my uncle's wedding, and now I want to go back for another vacation (preferably during the summer😉). I've even entertained the idea of moving up there after I graduate.
EDIT: Oh yeah, and I know all about Timmy Ho's. There are a few in the northern States, and I worked at one near my parents' house last summer.

If were all moving to Canada, maybe we can get jobs on as Ice Road Truckers.
Cheesy program, but good fun and oddly compelling.
