  1. If i decide . I will still live in my hometown china Sichuan chengdu . And there has always enjoyed the reputation of being a "heavenly land of plenty".although I born in chongqing . But there climate not very good . When the summer there are very arid and hot . And in the winter there are very frigid . There is not really suitable for living. Anyway I don't like chongqing 'climate . But I'd very love to live in chengdu . My family and friends all in there. There really is a comfortable city to stay. It's never very hot in the summer,or very cold in the winter.and the weather is humid . But it's good to the skin. Although there has so much rainy in summer. But I also love there...

  2. Even if I have the chance to move out of Kuwait, I will never move out for several reasons. First of all, Kuwait is a small rich country where everyone can have a job with a very good salary. Especially for me; because I'm going to be an engineer. Engineers make more than 3500 dollars minimumly. In addition to good employment, Kuwait is very safe country. We can not compare it with the united states, for example. My family changed the out side doors of our house last month because it was like an ancient Doors. Because we painted our house before we bought new doors, we had to take of the out side doors to paint the house. So my family have lived for a week without out side doors. Do you know what occurred? Nothing. Nobody thought about stealing our things. And our cars are parked usually outside the house but nothing occurred for the cars. Last but not least, all my relatives and friends are in Kuwait. It is true that Kuwait is a tropical country, but it is not a powerful reason for migration in my opinion.

    1. Sometimes I have to move in a new place for several necessary reasons. However, if I can make a choice I would like to live in Chengdu. Chengdu becomes a rainy land in the summer so that the weather is humid and hot. The summer weather is not very comfortable, but it is good for plants and crops. That is why Chengdu is called "the land with rich natural resource". Chengdu is not a frigid land. It snows a few times in the winter, but it is not snowy place. I think the most important reason is my family and all of my relations are in Chengdu. Nowadays, many migrations are living in Chengdu because of the employment. There are many foreign companies' branch companies such as IBM,HP and Caterpillar, so there are many opportunities. Chengdu is a very good city for me.

  4. I will decide to live in my hometown,Shiga in Japan because I stay with my family. I was born in the different city,but we had to moved to there because of my father's place of employment was transferred to this city. Therefore, there is just our inhabit. In acient times, Shiga was near to the capital in Japan, so the city was developed and people moved to there. I like this city because I live nearby a lake which is the biggest lake in Japan. Therefore,the lake make me cool in summer. Also,there are seen a lot of people who fishing. People can enjoy fishing anytime. Moreover,I can see fireworks in every summer because fireworks display is held nearby the lake. My city is very comfortable for me to stay. On other hand,a part of this area is very snowly and frigid. Consequently,cattle breeding is a business in this area so you can see herding of cattles there. That is why my city has many attractive points for me. I have a lot of friends in there. I like this city, so I will stay there.

  6. Personally speaking, if i can, I will live in my hometown Jiangsu Haimen, because it was inhabit that city, my parents lived there right now, and it also was a ancient city, the most of my ancestors lived there.Haimen has four distinct seasons, but winter is comparatively warmer. If you lived there, you will never feel frigid all of the year. The temperate always makes me comfortable, I like this feeling. By the way, because of the weather, more and more person migrations to Haimen. It was a seaside city, I can eat the seafood any times. When I lived in Haimen I am often go fishing with my father,and enjoy the happy of fishing. At last but not the least,it was my hometown, so I can easily obtain employment. Haimen was a part of my live, so I couldn't give up. It's also the reason why I want to move there.

  8. Denmark is and will always be the country I belong to, where I feel at home and therefore the country where I prefer to have my home base. Denmark is a small country, built up by a lot of islands, three big and a lot of small islands between. I live in the capital, Copenhagen, but even the capital isn't bigger than you can bike across the city in less than forty minutes. Everything is also very close to you. The nature is beautiful and you are always close to it even though you are in the center of the capital. You are always close to a forest or a beach. But the thing I love most is the sense of security. The crime rate is low and you are never scarred of walking on your own on the street in the night. You feel free or you have freedom, in my opinion, but that is a political issue, but something that is a fact is the equal opportunity for both genders. Something that I really appreciate is the good and free health services and I think everyone enjoys it. Other things I could mention as a reason to decide to live in Denmark could be the good education system and it's free and you even get study grant so you get paid for study. The transport system is very well functioning and Denmark is at the same time leading the transition to a green growth economy and tries to get fossil free during the next forty years. Of course there are some people who decided to move to another country and there is also reasons that sometimes makes me thinking about moving. The weather in Denmark is totally unpredictable and we can experience all seasons in one week. The weather is never really hot and humid, but instead often very cold, rainy and snowy. I hate the weather in Denmark and in the coldest month from October to April I like to travel a lot. The weather is definitely one of the reasons why people moving, but of course that answer will be different from person to person. The last reason I will mention is the high taxes and dues, which often is a reason why people moving. Everything is very expensive and it is cheaper to establish a manufacturing company in other country, which is also a risk for employment opportunities.

  9. I will decide to live in my country, Japan. I have some reasons why I will decide. First of all, I think it is so comfortable and good environment to live. There are 4 seasons which are different temparature and have a different view. Second, My family lives my homecountry. If I live in another country, I hardly can see my family, so I'd like to live the place close by my family. But, sometimes I want to visit another countrys.

    1. I didn't tell where I want to live the place concretely. my hometown is really local. I actually don't want to live there. Because I can't go shopping, but I really like my hometown because there is so beautiful sea. This is my favorite place, so I want to live in the city which is close by my house as possible.

  10. If I decide to live country, I want to live in Italy. There are three reason why I chose Italy. first, Italy has many ancient women art and amazing World Heritage, so I want to see those things. Of course, I can see many World Heritage, even though I don't live in Italy, but If I live in Italy, I can see those things whenever I want. I don't need think about have a long vacation. Second, Italian people are optimistic. I took a area studies class in Japan and I learned about Italian people,culture,behavior. I want to be like Italy people. If they out of employment, they don't care about it and they start finding another job. I think I live in Italy, my mind is resembling Italy people more and more as the years go by. Finally, Italy is temperate, so I can inhabit my house comfortably. My country have many rainy days compare to Italy. I hate humid climate, so I want to live in Italy.

  11. I will choose California if I can decide where I can live. First of all, California’s climate is similar as my hometown, so I won’t feel uncomfortable in here. And the temperate is just fine for me to live. Second, it’s not rainy in summer in here. In Chengdu, it rains a lot in summer. And I will be wet and cloth will stick on my skin, which is totally terrible. However, California is not a snowy place which same as Chengdu. Sadly, one of my dreams is play snow fight with friends.
    It because California has high rate of the Asia people, so I can buy almost everything in here, that is a greatest benefit for me to live in here. And also there is not far away from beach, so I can go swimming and fishing anytime if I want. Even if the earthquake occurs sometimes, but always not the high level, so I think I can take it.
    I think that’s my reasons to decide to live in California.

  12. Living in a place which has a wonderful climate is important. I want to live in Chongqing or some cities in Sichuan province,China.I love the rainy weather there, totally different from my hometown.Good for our skim and breath. The employment there is easy, you can have a good job and the living expense isn't high. Local residents are easy and comfortable to live there.That's the reason why people love to move in there.I love the food there , that's amazing.Sichuan dish taste good,my favorite food is chafing dish.I want to go fishing and cooked the fish.That's the most significant reason why I want to inhabit there.I love that temperate city.
