Where are you from?

Tell everybody where you're from.
Select a continent and post a country.
I'm interested in where the most Oddworld Fans come from...

I don't know if a thread like this was created before.

Europe, UK, England, Surrey.

Apparently the 2nd slimmest county, but with all these Townies, I see no evidence of it.

Also it's apparently one of the most costly areas to live. With massive house prices. With the cost of this crap house, I could buy a much more uber house, if I moved further from London.

Europe --> Germany ---> Odenwald ---> Bergstraße ---> Lautertal ---> Lautern

We're a little Village.
No cinema, no shopping centres, no game shops...

But beautifully hills, forests and lakes!
Here you can breathe freshly air!

Germany is a wonderfull country!

i was in london with my classmates, in october last year.
some british girls started spitting and shouting at us (f*ckin nazi bitches, etc).
finally they kicked the "balls" of a friend of mine, my best friend got a black eye and another classmate lost a bush of hair.
we were 25 and they were 4.

the city and the history of london is nice. all attractions like madame tussauds were great.

I live in Tulare, a somewhat small town in central California and the biggest dairy capital of the US. Tons of cows here, so naturally it smells. The horrible thing is...you get used to the smell after a while.

Europe - Hungary - Budapest - Újpest

Nice capital, a bit loud, but which capital isn't? OK, maybe not that loud. The place is full with these prefabricated houses, I live in one of them, next to the tram line. You get used to the noise with time. And you can get to places quickly with the underground train (also known as metro). Lots of shopping centers, cinemas, theaters, libraries and stuff like that.

Bored.

It's a town south of Boston.
We used to be a gigantical shoe industry back in the early 1900s. Then it sorta ... stopped. We was the number 1 producer of men's shoes worldwide. Or so I've been told.

Australia->Victoria->Melbourne -> St Kilda East

Melbourne is the worlds most livable city. I don't know who decides that and on what criteria but they keep on telling us that. And the weather really isn't as bad as everyone says. We're in a drought so we hardly get any rain at all.

United States - Illinois - Berryville. It's in South-Eastern Illinois, so it's hardcore farm country. Not so bad, but I get so tired of quaint country folk. Quaint is nice for a little while, but jesus... It gets really old really fast. There's a town north of me that I go to a lot. It has about 9,000 people, a theater, a Wal Mart Supercenter, 5 or 6 pizza joints, lots of fast food places, 3 schools... Everyone there is an asshole, though.

I would tell you the actual suburb that I live in, but the actual suburb is quite small, so it wouldn't take much to find me. Its a great area, with good water views, and enough greenery

I am from the United States, Akron Ohio well more like in the suberbs of Akron in a small town called Kent.

Nothing much just everything an urban and suberbian life have to offer. Lots of trees and forest and lots of hills. Movie theaters, malls lots of restuarants, and also half hour away from a local Amusement Park that was reciently Six Flags Islands of Adventure but now turned back to what it originally was. And that is Geuaga Lake Amusement Park. The air is fresh here too surpriseingly knowing I am suberb city folk. But I enjoy this area very peaceful and quiet. This place is like Florida in the summer time, and its like the arctic in the winter.


We get a lot of rain that this place is very lush and very humid and muggy during the summer.

Pennsylvania, in a city that outstretches for like 30 miles.

Description:
rains every day
filled with rusted metal
miserable people
shitty stores that try to pass off used items as new
and every kid has a nuetral "don't give damn" attitude..

Ah, I lovely place to visit if you're a dehydrated slug.
