A Place I've Never Visited

but would like to live.  Well, this is a fun and thought provoking topic.  Primarily places where I think I'd like to live are places where I've gone and had a great time or the weather has been beautiful, San Diego for example.  This is also made particularly difficult because I have been lucky enough to visit a LOT of places in the United States.

Assuming I could overcome the language barrier, I think I would have to choose somewhere in Italy. Southern Italy specifically.  Naples, maybe, or along the Amalfi coast.  Or inland, towards Montella.  My daughter went there on a student exchange and got so much from that beautiful small town and it's residents and having our Italian "daughter" stay with us, enriched all of our lives.  Also, Sicily might be nice, although I'm not sure living on an island would work for me.

I would be happy with a nice sunny spot, somewhere where I could visit the ocean when I wanted, or the mountains.  The Italian lifestyle seems relaxed in a way that appeals to me at this point in my life. People are warm and friendly.  The food is spectacular.  There is relatively easy access to the rest of Europe.

I think I'm sold.  Time to cut this blog short and start house hunting!
