Are you a natural Hermit? I think I would love to live somewhere where I have minimal communication with everyone around me. I would also love to visit family and friends back home maybe once a year at most. I already kind of do that but at least I would have an excuse.
I’m not a party animal exactly but also not a hermit. The reason I wanted to go home was the racism and xenophobia of Japanese people (which mostly isn’t aggressive but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t grind you down over time)
On the other hand I think as a white guy, experiencing that kind of arrogance, unwarranted superiority of the majority race, while at the same time being able to find all the skeletons in the closet (because behind the nice veneer, Japan is quite the unrepairable mess) was very enlightening so I am glad I didn’t go home early.
Who hasn’t watched “Searching for Italy” and thought, “Yeah, Italy’s fucking awesome! I could totally make it there!”?
eh, you can make it, but life’s not that comfortable here
You’ve been holding out on us! Please upload some pictures of beautiful Italy.
It’s not bad if you have money. Southern Italy is getting pretty toasty, though.
“If you have money” really puts a shine on almost any place
Can you define that? For me, all I really care about is A/C and an internet connection
I once lived in Tokyo for three years, had both, after half a year I couldn’t wait to go home.

Technically you could “make it” anywhere.
