Oooh, that's interesting! Now I actually know more about koalas aside from them being cute & cuddly. Okay, so maybe not so cuddly since Steph mentioned their long claws. :/

Tiffanie | 164 comments Hello all I'm new.

I live in Salt lake City Utah USA
I was also born here.
Even though I'm not a Mormon, I can't see living any place else.

We got snow ski down, lakes to boat in, mountains to climb, desert dunes to ride over and canyons to hike.

message 412: by Emma (new)

Emma (jellicoe112) | 5 comments Hi everyone. I'm Emma and I live in Bristol, England currently but regularly go 'home' to Wales where I grew up (its the small country attached to England on the right, accessible via the Severn Suspension Bridge from Bristol!) Would like to retire to Wales with holiday homes in Paris, France; Colorado, USA and St Lucia..... well a girl can dream, right!

Cris S. (bleunween) | 26 comments Hi Emma! Btw, Wales is beautiful :)


message 414: by Emma (new)

Emma (jellicoe112) | 5 comments Hi Bleunween *waves*. It is lovely I agree. I'm told the Welsh countryside is a lot like New Zealand. Not sure how true that is because I've never been to NZ but I'd love to visit one day.

Sandra | 25907 comments Hi, Emma! Got some good places lined up for retirement living :)

I've been to NZ, and whilst I haven't been to Wales I've seen it a lot on Escape to the Country, and I'd say they are pretty similiar only the houses are a lot older in Wales ;)

~Leslie~ (akareadingmachine) | 1224 comments Hello, fun questions!

I live in Shreveport, Louisiana but am from New Orleans. Katrina forced the move 6 years ago. I have lived all over the country and in Central and South America when I was a child. Though I always called Louisiana home. As soon as my last child graduates high school next year, my husband and I will move back to New Orleans. If you're from there, you just can't stay away!
I love reading where others are from. One of my favorite things about GR.


message 431: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32697 comments Thanks for the response, Leslie. Sorry you were caught in Katrina, but glad to hear you made it out safely! I have visited New Orleans, but not since then. When we return to the states we will definitely make a return trip.
