to not be surrounded by pavement. also inexpensive, non-reserved seat, regional public transport, to every place that has a name and a post office. (that's something i miss from where i was living in california, where the state and counties stepped up to fill the gap when the last of the for profits failed) (i also miss hobby train stores and big discount computer electronix stores. i don't miss central valley weather nor the cost of living though, and i am closer to my hills which are also in cali, that i also miss. just on the other side of them over in reno nevada) a good well balanced meal of small proportions of at least three or four different kinds of foods. (including fresh meat and veg. and the veg sides each as if they were a vegitarian main course, and it could even not have any starchy extender courses, but one, no more of then the others would be ok) pumpkin ice cream or green tea ice cream. (actually i'm not craving them so much at the moment, but my purrfect meal needs just the right desert to top it off)
