    It's a better life in the country, if you can work elsewhere. Zetland and Waterloo are cash cows. It's your udder.

    m8 as soon as my other half finishes her uni course will be moving to the Adelaide foothills. Best place in the world for me.

    There are huge new building areas converting formerly industrial land in Zetland, then Camperdown, then Rhodes, and now Alexandria. They all look the same, and will start to fall down in the same order. They all have narrow streets and all are security buildings where no one knows their neighbours.

    The best place in the world is where your family is. I hope you can understand this, if not i feel sorry for you.

    Even if no family was there, its still a fantastic place to live (if you like the simple life but still want access to all modern things)

    If i had to pick the most scenic place i would pick either the Austrian alps or somewhere along the Amalfi Coast, but overall once you add everything to the mix Adelaide hills is the best place to live for me.
    I only came to that conclusion after traveling :) you should try it some time...

    I do like the Adelaide Hills and I do live near my family, but no need to feel sorry for someone else that also makes the right choices for themselves.

    For a lot of people, the best place in the world is anywhere their family isn't. Everyone's different, everyone's family is different.

    I hope you can understand this, if not i feel sorry for you. ;)

    I do understand that some people have unfortunate family dynamics. it sucks and i feel sorry for them :| What confuses you? i recommend you work harder on your interpretation... ;)

    Would also help if you read "it's the best place for me" yes that's right me and not everyone... and like i said if you happen to have an unfortunate family then i feel sorry for you (in the sense that you can never experience what its like to have a close family) and then obviously being near "your" family is not the best.
