You know what is great about the internet? The cultural diversity that exists. You know what is great about forums like this? Cultures congregate and co-exist, often without realising it. I've always been interested in learning about all the places that I have not seen in the world. And I don't mean going to Paris and seeing the Eiffel Tower. I mean the people and the landscape. Often I see people on here who are from the UK, and I get the urge to just message them saying, "What is your life like? What is like where you live?" But I've never done this, because I think it might be kind of weird, and a bit intrusive. That's when I got the idea of creating a thread. Here I want you to talk about where you live. What you love and hate about it, the weather, the people, and anything else. And here we can learn and discuss about different places and cultures that our world has to offer. Be more specific about your location than country, because there are many people from your country most likely. But please don't tell very personal information, so let's keep it to city. Also, be respectful. Patriotism and blind generalizations of cultures creates conflict. Let's be open minded. So for me, I live in New Jersey, United States. During the winter it gets down to 0 degrees Fahrenheit, but it is usually around freezing which is 32 degrees. During the summer it can get as hot as 100 degrees Fahrenheit, but the average is around 80 degrees I would say. Compared to the rest of the country, our weather is pretty mild in both extremes which is nice. In my neighborhood, there are a lot of forests and hills. Also farming is very big here. There are no businesses in my town, just neighborhoods, so the local popular town is fifteen minutes away (driving). In that town there are stores like Walmart, Target, Shoprite, Home Depot, along with fast food restaurants, and locally owned stores and restaurants. I really enjoy New Jersey, but I wouldn't mind moving North to New England where it's a bit colder. Also, I really want to travel to the United Kingdom, especially Scotland. I'm looking to get a career in a global organization where I could get an option to travel, or move to a different country such as the UK. So how about you?
