Are you happy where you currently live?

I live in nyc and can't wait to move from here. It's a sh*t hole filled with a**holes. This city was really nice in the 90's and early 00's. However this city has lost what made it unique. Many of nyc natives have moved out to the rising rent, expenses, gentrification and it being too overcrowded. There are new high rises going up everywhere in this city. In a few years this city will be only for the rich. Right now I'm just trying to save enough to move out. This city is honestly over-rated.

NYC is so overrated. I’m content for now where I live but I’d like to move back to my home country eventually.

@GetOutOfJailFreeCard nyc is overrated, I'd like to move back home to my country as well when I get older. Where are you from?

Originally Ireland. My family moved over when I was just 11. Where are you from? @Kidreamer

@GetOutOfJailFreeCard Nice, I am originally from Ghana. Family moved here when I was 8.

@Kidreamer Ghana to NYC seems like quite the change.

@GetOutOfJailFreeCard Oh yeah, it's a big change. Took me a while to get use the city. Mainly because everything is so loud and fast paced here. While back home is very quiet and laid back.

@Kidreamer Africa is one place I’d like to visit.

@GetOutOfJailFreeCard there are many nice countries to visit, just have to be careful which ones you go to. My friends and I were planning to back pack a few countries in europe and Ireland was one of the countries on our list. Any places you would recommend?

@Kidreamer unless you want touristy places skip Dublin and head to Galway for a lively music pub scene. Although Dublin does have the Guinness factory. The cliffs of moher are beautiful. Hit the ring of Kerry. Blarney castle and stone in Cork.

@GetOutOfJailFreeCard Thank you very much, just looked up Cliff of Mothers and it truly is beautiful.
