    Always country living as i said before but the absolute best was living in the Amazon jungle. To get there you have to fly into the city of Iquitos, Peru, no roads in or out of the city, only accessable by river boat or plane, then go up-river 120 mile to a camp in the jungle. No nothing, no electricity, phones, radio, newspapers....nada. Just you and the jungle and you're not at the top of the food chain there either. The night sky is incredible, its beyond description, the sounds of nature are mind blowing and no artifical anything...full-blown reality in your face 24/7. Thank god lots of people like cities...keeps the jungle free and clean.

    Well, I lived in a very small city now, so small it doesn't even have suburbs. I live in the country now, about an hour's drive from the nearest store or eatery. I love out here and all, but I really miss the city.


    Big city dwellers would probably call it a town, but it's the perfect place. The only big buisness around here is Wal-mart, but it's way far from the city. Mostly it's small buisnesses and boutiques. I love it. I lived a short ten minute walk from the historic district. That's the only city place, the rest is a bunch of small stores or fast food places along the highway.

    I'm not sure which I am. I guess a country person, but still close to the city.

    I grew up and currently live in a small town/village in S.E. Michigan...so when I think of country...I think of farms and people like the "good ole' boys"...in which I don't fit...and I've lived in cities and visited them...and I don't quite fit there...

    But put me in the forests and mountains...and I'm happy...so...whatever that means :)

    Im living in the country, but it's very boring in here! When i'm 19, I would like to move to the city. You can do more things there, and meet more different people. In the country it;s always the same people you meet, and they gossip a lot! That's my experience! In a city they accept uniqeness, everything is normal in there!

    i lived in the country and went to a small town high school where i was treated like a freak. then in the ;last few years i lived in a little town where i was treated like the local freak. i live in the state capital now and it's a small city but at least i'm not considered a freak. my folks live in the country next to the small town i moved from and i like visiting them but i don't miss the town. the town had a post office, a gas station and a couple of bars but the most numerous buildings besides houses were churches. Being a vegetarian Zen Buddhist with tattoos & piercings didn't make me the posterchild of popularity...LOL
