    Nope.

    Was born in North Carolina.

    Mom and Dad moved away to Pennsylvania a few weeks after I was born. We lived there a year (only recently found out about that <_<) then moved here to California.

    Lived here ever since, except for a 6 month period in 4th grade where we moved to Washington, and another 6 month period in 4th/5th grade where we moved back to North Carolina.

    Nope. I'm an army brat (or was, i guess. my dad is retired now...:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:) I was born in New Jersey. But since then I've also lived in New Mexico, Colorado, Italy, Texas, and now I'm back in Colorado:slight_smile: Though I've been told I have that " 'Jersey swagg/attitude"..... idk... D'ya think so?

    Not at all. I was born in Prince Rupert, BC, while my parents were living west of there - and Prince Rupert is *on* the west coast :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Moved around a bunch since then, and I have been in six provinces (outside walking around in five :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:) and one state. Funny enough, I've actually been to that state twice, and both times came back with decorative weapons XD

    Nope - live quite a ways away from where I was born. Not as far as some perhaps, but the mileage is measured in the thousands.

    I was born and still currently live in Sydney, Australia. ;D
    I haven't travelled much yet, but I have been to QLD; so that would make only 2 states. :slight_smile:

    I was born an lived in a run-down industrial city in the Midlands of the UK and left when I was 20 to go to university. Only occasionally visit family there now - no intention of ever going back.

    I've never been to the US but I have been to 10 different countries, mostly in Europe but also in Africa.

    Apart from growing up and studying in England, I have lived in Germany and I've lived here in the Netherlands for the last 9 years. I've taken the trouble to learn the language so I don't live as a tourist here!

    I have no desire to return to England and when I retire, I want to live in France.

    No, I left the small city where I was born when I was 13 to move to a bigger city, Ottawa, Canada.

    I haven't missed that small town for a day, for a moment or even a second.

    For your other question: 8 states (MI, NY, PA, DC, DE, MD, MN, RI)

    I have been to all provinces in Canada, with the exception of Yukon, NWT, and NU!
