i'm supposed to be studying...

But here are some places I would like to try living sometime (I grew up in Los Alamos, and the weather and atmosphere is perfect...nice summers that aren't excruciating, and beautiful, cool autumn, and winters that actually get significant amounts of snow)

Maine - I would like to experience living near the ocean...not so tropical, but it would be fun to have a house within a short walking distance to the rocky shores

Massachusetts - Who wouldn't want to live here? I have seen my friends' pics from being at UMass, and I get jealous each time. Beautiful fall colors.

Vermont - Again, beautiful fall colors. I have lived in Los Alamos my whole life, where the mountains are mostly Aspens and Conifer trees. Which is lovely also, but I would like to experience the mountains and wilderness where the trees are all...leafy...?? Nice summers and winters that actually count as winters.

New Hampshire - same reason as VT

Hawaii - Yes, I know, I said I love winter and wouldn't want to live in summer all the time. But I wouldn't mind living here temporarily. Maybe for business or something. A year or less. But I do need my snow.

Alaska - opposite extreme of Hawaii. The fresh wilderness and bitter cold. Salmon fishing. Whale watching anytime I want to. Medium-sized towns. I would want a cabin by a lake or shore. Maybe a bear or moose would occasionally stop by.

Canada - Not sure exactly where. Then I could say I've lived in another country.
