I think everybody loves his house... Europe is my big house! So there is no need of another reason to love Europe.

Well, I don't really love my house, or ... my apartment, and I really want to move away, hehe. However, Europe is a great place to live, especially up here in the northern part of it.
I guess in the old Soviet countries, life isn't as easy as it is here, though.

I would love to live in Europe. It is a great place to be. It is simply goregous and there are so many neat places to visit and see.

However, I love the suburbs in the U.S., it looks so organized often, like the image below. We don't have such streets in Norway, we build our apartments and houses up against the mountains (which is great, but ... well, not quite like what you guys got):

I love Europe because my mother is working here. She is working at Athens, Greece for about 17 years . Her employer is really good to her and i am considering it as a gift of god since my mom is safe.

Haha, I think that's awesome as well, Andrew. We don't have much of that here in Scandinavia I think, maybe some parts of Denmark is the closest we can get?
At least Swedish suburbs are more like the Norwegian once, so we're not much different there.

Cities in US are really organized and if you use Google Maps and try too zoom in the cities, you can easily spot the patterns. In my country, if there is an available lot for establishment, they will just build it there without the consideration of adding a pattern on the streets. If seen in the Gmaps, it looks so messy and not easily recognizable as a city. Moreover, Europe is a better place since it has lesser crime rate in comparison to US.

Yes it is nice to have streets, but how great to be living up against a mountain. Could you post a pic for use to see? I bet that is very peaceful and just gorgeous.

Well, I wouldn't post a picture of my hometown, but this is pretty near where I live:

I enjoy living near the forest, I could go for an hour jog if I want, whenever I want to. It's peaceful, which is something I appreciate.
