Would you be a KSU alum by chance? I can't believe that 2 ppl on the same thread would have lived in Manhattan KS!

Great thread
ok: the Poconos ->Philly->Providence, RI -> Brookline, MA -> Philly

With 2 separate 6 week stays in the greater Pittsburgh area and 1 month in Richmond, VA (but it felt like a year in VA because everyone moved and talked much to slowly)

BTW--Gaetano P's post is just too Philly for words

we're homeys!

Oceanport, NJ (hometown)-> Richmond, VA(army) -> Columbus, GA (army)-> Fayetteville, NC (army)-> Chapel Hill, NC -> Bradley Beach, NJ (back "home" for school) -> Columbia, SC (took a year off) -> Allenhurst, NJ (back "home" for school) -> Charleston, SC (college of charleston)-> Voorhees, NJ (rutgers-camden) -> Collingswood, NJ -> Old City -> South Philly

While i could see myself living in San Francisco or LA or Chicago and even places like Portland or Boston, it would only be for 2 years at most. There really isn't another part of the country i'd rather be in. Besides, my extended family is all within 70 miles, my brothers moved here 3 years ago and my parents are moving here this summer.

I've also spent 6 weeks each in northern Spain and southern France and am thinking about going to Asturias or Galicia (northwestern Spain) for 6 months next year to scope it out and perhaps plant a firmer foot over there. but that really depends on my dad's citizenship paperwork coming through.

Even still, regardless of where i moved, they're all sure to be more expensive markets than this one so i doubt that i'd ever sell my house here. More importantly i'd always want to know that i have a "home" to come back to.

I'm a tried and true local!

Frankford --> Temple --> Wash West --> UCity --> QV --> UCity --> Roxborough --> Wash West --> Ardmore --> Coatesville --> Morgantown --> Roxborough


Jeff's is much more interesting:

Roxborough --> West Chester --> Wilmington --> Wynnewood --> Richmond --> Wellfleet --> Houston --> Boston --> San Francisco --> Boston --> NYC (Lower West Side) --> West Chester --> Ardmore --> Coatesville --> Morgantown --> Roxborough
