I was reading this today and had to share, just to prove it is not just me that believes Canada is a better place to live. This was released by the UN and is a ranking of countries... The Top 10:

Shhh, Tina we should not tell them that Canada has slipped from spending many years at Number 1, however the UN says it is not a decline in Canadian standards, it is that Norway and Sweden have improved upon theirs... IP: Logged |

Silva, it really is a good place, however if you are used to Brazil, you should for sure not come here between November and March (even April to be on the safe side) but May - October are usually nice. Although May and October themselves tend to be rainy. June - September is construction season, but that is only a slight annoyance... IP: Logged |

JustJenn: Do you also look like you're trying to single-handedly bring back the afro? Or even worse...the caucasian afro! I always laugh when people say "Oooh, I wish *I* had curly hair!" IP: Logged |

Motumbo, it took me a minute to understand, since I know you have a "sexy' picture of the back of my head... I was stupid and cut my hair off, which now means regardless of the flat irons and blowing it straight, I do end up with that ever sexy bed head look, I have yet to leave it curly intentionally, but yes I am sure that would be rather afro looking.

I like where I live, USA. Glad that everyone else likes where they live as well. If you don't like where you live, I suggest you explore other places. ~RENA~ IP: Logged |

I'm with Motumbo with the whole "I wish I had curly hair!" thing. All I have to say is: be careful with what you wish for! It's just too much work. Silvia IP: Logged |

I'm from Norway, I'm just going to brag a little bit. Do visit though, right now, where I live (South of Norway) we are experiencing tropical nights, as we call them. Tropical Nights are when the temperature does not fall below 20 degrees Celsius during the night. Pretty amazing for a country this far North, eh. I swam in The Atlantic yesterday, it was lovely - 22 degrees celsius. What a country, you should all envy me  If you are considering to travel to Norway, brng lots of cash, 'cause it's bloody expensive here. Keep that in mind. IP: Logged |

yeah steph, i understand why people are moving there in herds perfectly. i drove through colorado a couple of years ago on a road trip and i fell in love with your state. it's gorgeous. i would be so thrilled to live there. the weather was really nice (i visited in july). i know i would be way more active outdoors if i lived there. i'm in texas and although i love my home state tremendoulsy it's just too hot to be outdoors during the summer.
