As a side; Warsaw is honestly one of the most beautiful places I've ever been, Magda. Though I've not been to any of the other locations mentioned, save for Illinois when I briefly visited Chicago years ago. :)

message 15: by Michael (new)

Michael (micky74007) I grew up in Dearborn MI; joined the USAF in 1971, spent my whole tour in Texas, decided to stay there. After 20 years, I was transfered to south Florida by my company; been here ever since. Would love to move to the Blue Ridge GA area or Virginia around the DC area when I retire. If my wife and I ever win the lotto, it will be off to Ireland for us.

message 25: by Peter (new)

Peter (goodreadscompetermeredith) | 22 comments I'm grew up in the greatest place in the world--Governor's Island--a tiny island off the tip of Manhattan. It had all the quaint magic of a small town: no one locked their doors at night because we essentially had zero crime. Everyone knew everyone else and a block party could host five hundred people.
And at the same time we were smack in the middle of the greatest city on earth, where adventure was only a ferry ride away.
