tel aviv is cosmopolitan, cool, girls wear tiny skirts and have fabulous legs, you can find non-kosher food, it's right by the beach, i love the bauhaus buildings, the cinematheque, this art museum i dont remember its name, and the tel aviv univerity library, and going to yafo for pitot on saturday (heathen that i am), and sheinkin street at night, an the market in the morning, and this 24 hour hummus place around where i was living, and the awesome coffee shops, and bookstores, i love that town, just walking around, i love it.

There's no way you want to live in Marseille! I used to live there for 15 years and guy it's SHIIIIIIT. Blah. There's great landscapes, of course, but culturally it's near zero: no gig, no local scene (there's only one good band I can think of, Binaire), no discstores. And people are really stupid generally. No, really, you shouldn't live there. Lille is far better, in France

London
New York
Paris
Munich

Are you talking about pop music?

I thought everybody was?

Munich? really?
I don't like Munich but maybe i'm a little prejudiced, i had my first car crash in Munich.
nah,
all in all Munich is pretty ugly, a "wannabe Vienna".



here's my list

London
Vienna (i'll probably move there next year)
Prague
Istanbul
New York
Lisbon
Berlin
San Francisco
Paris

It's funny how the European board members decry our fantasies about their "fair" cities. I feel the same way about San Francisco! Anyone who thinks they want to live in the real city, doesn't know how overpopulated it is, how insane the cost of living is, and how miserable it is driving in the hilly area. Plus it's in California, which puts you under the control of the most insane state government in the U.S.

I wouldn't honestly want to live in any city. I'd much rather live in a large town or in a country village within easy travelling distance of a decent city.

Kyoto
Barcelona
Amsterdam
Vancouver

It is the only place in France I've been to. I thought it was nice and quiet. But I'll take your word for it.

From what I've heard, southern Germans are friendlier.

Seville
Madrid
New York

Yeah. I hate Frisco too. But I pretty much hate California. And Washington State.

Tokyo
Kyoto
Osaka
Yokohama
Fukuoka
Nagoya
Sapporo
Kobe
Kawasaki
Saitama
Kitakyushu
Sendai
Ichihara
Takayama

Beijing
Tokyo
Moscow
Prague
Florence
Manchester
Barcelona
New York
Shangai
Lisbon
Krakow

Possibly more.

I don't actually know all the cities on my list but they just seem like cool places to live.

San Fransisco re: Dead Air - yeah, but food, art, food, art, food, cool summer, food, music, food, cool summer, food, no summer, food. Who needs a car in SF anyways? I have feet. Plus the hills are lovely.

Osaka/Kobe (been there, done that, gladly do it again)

Sapporo (not too far)

London

Berlin

NYC (temporarily living in New York City for to finish an ESL teaching course for me job. There's much going on, fo sure, but it's not unlike living in a shopping mall. There's nary a neighborhood in Manhattan that isn't well along in the gentrification process. Even where I'm staying in Harlem. Maybe I'd like to live somewhere in Brooklyn)

Austin (been there, done that, maybe I'll go back post-nuclear winter)

Reykjavik (I think I have completely unreal expectations of this city, but what the nut, I'd give it a try)


Seattle (fuck a bunch of sunlight)

Vancouver (ditto)

Chicago (Lived there as a child. It still feels like home somewhat).

Darjeeling (Hooray for Himalayas!)

Thimphu-Bhutan (ditto)

oklahoma city x 15.

i live very close to milton. they must include thyings like school systems, low crime rate, etc... because milton has excellent of those types of things. those are like the best cities to raise families, not like the hip artsy cities,

yah. great place to watch tv and die slowly.

Since we all have the internet
there is no need to go outside anyway.

ha ha.

i live in this tiny town in new mexico hence this is my link to civilization.

luckily next month im moving to albuquerque, which is a mid-sized city (700K people), and while it's not my dream city nor the cultural capital of the universe, it's pleasant and interesting enough that it should keep me off the internet in good measure-- i'm currently too attached to it because, well, my house right now is like a space capsule in the void, and how else would i know what's up on earth?
