Where/how would you like to live, and why?

[Holdinguphalfthesky]

You can have up to 5. Money no barrier, but let’s pretend you have the magical ‘enough’ to live the lifestyle you’d want.

(These are in order of me thinking of them rather than preference.)

1. Vauxhall/South Lambeth. Stayed there for a course last year and loved it, really nice shops and cafes, parks, facilities, and walkable/easy to central london and interesting places. I feel in another life this is a place I could have really enjoyed living. I was tired of London when I left it but it seems much nicer now, 20 years on!
2. Isle of Mull. Gorgeous beaches, wild weather, quiet…
3. The 3rd arondissement in Paris, for broadly similar reasons to 1.
4. Malaga… ditto, but with the beach!
5. On a narrowboat, near Bath or Hebden Bridge or Melton Mowbray. I love the idea of having a tiny home, cosy with the fire, lots of time outdoors and woodsmoke and big woollen jumpers. Gorgeous! (Yes, I know it probably isn’t like that in reality- or is it!?)

1. Right now, a cottage in the middle of the countryside with no one for miles. Lovely country kitchen, boot room, wood fire.
2. Southern Spain, in a gorgeous villa, soaking up the sun.

Any of them, I live in a terrible housing estate, think gangs, kidnappings, murders ect. I'd give anything to move, id go tomorrow.

If I could I'd move back to my hometown so I can by near family.
Unexciting Midlands town...but it's home.
If money was no issue rather than buying a massive house I would by a small house but I'd learn to drive, buy a campervan and travel all over the country staying at hotels if I need too.

Anywhere with some sunshine tbh.

1. Where I am (rural midlands) with mortgage paid off and owning the surrounding 10 acres
2. Beach front house just outside of Newquay
3. Freehold 3 bedroom apartment in South Kensington with unlimited access to all the museums

Probably somewhere in Alberta Canada

1. Northern Norway. Proper seasons, beautiful scenery, and if I had money, a nice life
2. Canada (2 different options - Nova Scotia or Calgary) for similar reasons (although politics puts me off)
3. Scotland - Isle of Harris or Skye.
4. Prague. Have never been a city person but this is the one I could see myself live in.

I used to live on a narrowboat, and no, it’s not much like that. I loved it though.

1 Methoni, in Greece - my retirement plan before bastard Brexit.
2 Edinburgh. I used to live there and miss it a lot
3 Tynemouth, which is a real possibility for the near future

Anywhere (almost) that isn’t where I currently live!

By choice Bergen (Norway) or Verona or anywhere in Canada

London- Streatham Hill. Or somewhere near Green Lanes.
Or the house I grew up in, which has an orchard and stables and is beautiful, but way beyond my means now; I live in a council flat.

Exactly where I am! Swiss alps. It’s so beautiful, I love it.

I’d stay where I am which is a village in Sussex

A small town about 15 minutes away from my current home
and a house overlooking the sea on the coast near me (south devon)
and a flat in Seville with a patio with an orange tree

that will do really- can I trade the last two for a new campervan?

Off the top of my head; Palma de Mallorca, The Peak District, Shrewsbury, or somewhere in Florida (never been so not sure where).

SC here and love it! Not far from New Forest. Beaches.purbeck hills.2 hrs to london.grew up there but not the same now sadly
