>>You know what realtors say about the value of a house : location,location , location. ;)
I like it in NZ. But I also like the UK, your piece of Europe and most of the USA I've visited. Quite liked Middle-Southern Africa too, but that was before the AIDS scourge and Mugabe's craziness. I'm contemplating a trip next year to Namibia and anticipate retracing the days of my youth and seeing whether the magic still is there. ;-) They say the grass is always greener etc but it's a big wide world and we're responsible for our own happiness wherever we may find ourselves. ;-)
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
