Where in the world are you?

https://s26.postimg.cc/wg4vl157d/witway.png
One of many great things about SnitchSeeker is that our members come from all four corners of the world. If you name any country, the odds are that we have at least one member who lives there. There may be, of course, a few exceptions, but who is really keeping track? We are just excited that our members cover a vast amount of the world, which is why I am sure many of us know time zones like the palm of our hand.

So, where in the world are you? Do you live in Brazil? China? England? The United States? No matter what country you are from, let us know here. What do you love most about living where you do? Have you always lived there? Note that you may be as vague as you want with your location.

I will start us off:
O Canada! Our home and native land! Yes, I am a Canadian born and raised. I was born in London, Ontario, Canada (did you know that is also the birthplace of the ever dreamy Ryan Gosling? *wiggles eyebrows*). I lived there for the early years of my childhood before my family moved to Canada's capital Ottawa, where I completed primary and secondary school. I then moved to Toronto for university, though I did study abroad in the United States for a semester. After living in the Toronto area for a number of years, I recently moved back to Ottawa.

OOC: Only tell us where you feel comfortable! If you want to say Africa but no country, that is more than okay!

I'm up in northern Minnesota in the United States only 1/2 hour from Lake Superior! I've lived here my entire life although I love to travel both nationally and internationally!

Now I am in the North East of England. I live in Newton Aycliffe which is close to Darlington/Middlesbrough. I'm used to people not knowing where I am :lol: I haven't always lived here though :shifty: I was born in Acomb, York and I lived there for 8 years. My mum and I then moved to Seaton Carew, Hartlepool to live with my Nan, but then got a house of our own in Greatham, Hartlepool (Ten minutes down the road by car). After we had lived there for a year or so, my mum reconnected with an old school friend and we moved down to Mill Hill, London and she eventually got engaged to the man. When they split up, we temporarily lived in Borehamwood, London (It's close to Elstree Studios, so lots of filming went on around there!).

We finally got our own place in Cricklewood, London which is another place that has a lot of filming going on :lol: While we lived there, I went back to live with my dad in Tang Hall, York. I moved back with my mum when my dad and step-mum chose to move to America for her job, and then I moved into Student Accommodation for the final year of college and lived in High Barnet, London. This is when Liz came to see me for the first time and tortured me with her snoring :mellow: Once I finished college, I moved in with my Nan and Uncle in Newton Aycliffe and now here I am!

I live in Northern California.. way way wayyyy Northern. The part that usually gets ignored by most people! I live in Redding, which is the very, very tippy top of the Sacramento valley. Two hours south of the Oregon Border!

I grew up though in the Northern San Francisco Bay Area. I lived there for eighteen years until my dad and mom decided to move out to the Sacramento valley. It was such a big switch, I was used to lovely temparate climate and fog of the Bay Area.. and we moved to Corning, Ca and the summer temps hit 117 f! I thought I was going to die!

After a few years in Corning, we moved twenty minutes north to Red Bluff, and then a few years later I got married and moved 30 minutes north to Redding..

A year later My husband and I moved to Tacoma, Wa. And I loved it there! I adore the rain and cool temps..

A few years ago though my husband lost his job and we moved back down to Redding.. It's still hot as heck and it's the second sunniest city in the US! Talk about a switch after living in the 3rd cloudiest city!

I live in Jundiaí, just 20 minutes away from São Paulo, but I wasn't born here, nor raised here.
Brazil is a big and beautiful country; I was bornand raised in a small town located in the country's south. The south of my country isn't that cold in the winter, but sometimes there's snow and it's too hot in summer (good for swimming and go to the beach). I liked living there.
When I was 11 I went to Hogwarts... I mean, I went to Campinas with family, as my mother was studying there to obtain there her Master's Degree in Statistic in a big University called Unicamp. Three years later we moved back to the south, where I lived during 2 years before moving to Campinas again, to live with my older sister and study at Unicamp.
There I studied Physics and, after that, Maths but I didn't get graduated in any of them as I changed my mind and decided that I love numbers and science, but I love people more. So I moved to São Paulo where I got graduated at Psychology at the best Brazilian university - USP (yes, I'm proud of that).
Then I got married and moved to Jundiaí. Jundiaí isn't the most beautiful place in the world, but it's a good city, with good schools, theaters, parks and good employment opportunities. It's a safe and peaceful place, good to raise kids.

I'm from Guyana, South America which also happens to be a part of the Caribbean :loved:

I live in Toronto, Canada. :) Been here for my entire life, and I love it!

I live in the Greater Fort Smith Metro area, which covers Crawford, Franklin and Sebastian counties in Arkansas and Leflore and Sequoyah in Oklahoma. I live on the Arkansas side, where I have my whole life :yes:

Presently I live in the Asheville, North Carolina area ^_^ (since early 2015, except for the 8 months last year when I was in the Charlotte area)

I grew up in New Jersey however, in various parts (Middlesex, Somerset and Morris Counties); save for four years in the 90s, when I lived in Columbus, Ohio.

I also attended college in Connecticut. So yea, I've lived in 4 states at some point or another ;)

I live on this fish-shaped island that exists east of NYC in New York. Lived there all my life.

I was born in Perth, Western Australia but I have lived in various suburbs of Mandurah, Western Australia which about 70kms south of Perth for my entire life.

:hello:

I'm in Panamá. Born and raised here, too.

I am in Northwest Georgia in the United States. I am about an hour from Atlanta (to the South) and Chattanooga (to the North). I have NOT always lived here, though. I grew up mostly in St. Augustine, Florida save for a year in Mayport. Then a month in Germany... and when I was 17-21 I spent the majority of my time in Metro Atlanta. Everywhere from Kennesaw to Decatur.

I'm in Portugal. Always have been here. ^_^

I'm in Sweden! *viking roar* Born and raised in the capital, Stockholm. :yes:

Tenerife, canary islands... i have been here for the last 23, upcoming 24 years. originally half german-half czech though. a mongrel so to say

I am from a little town called Port St. John in Cocoa, Florida. It's about an hour east of Orlando and about 15 minutes from the beach. I have lived here my whole life, though the rest of my family is from Tennessee. :)

I am in California, the East Bay. I am originally from Virginia but moved here a while back at the request of the company I worked for. I love it here and can’t see myself ever moving Back East.

My favourite thing about SS is getting to meet people from all over the world - I'm from New Zealand aka Middle Earth so unfortunately my timezone is probably the least compatible with most SSers :lol: but I make do.
