I come from Scotland which is within the U.K. I moved to Australia 6 year ago. I do enjoy Australia but I also very much enjoy going home every few years.
Do you live in the country you were born in if you what do you like about it. If not where do you live now and do you miss home at all?

Hi, I was born in El Salvador, Central America. Moved to Mexico when I was 13 and stayed there for almost 5 years. Then moved to Rome, Italy and have been living here for 23 years. And though my children were born in Rome and my best friends are Italian, I miss my family and the sun from El Salvador. Love Italian food but miss Mexican food! It's strange, I love all these places but at the same time feel a bit like a foreigner everywhere I go!

HI
Well I actually don't ... I was borned and raised in France but one day I met a American guy online and we fell in love ... met a few times ... then,we decided to get married ,.. and now we are living our happy life in the United States!
I love the United States but I must say I miss France from time to time ... especially my family ... eventhough we speak online and onthe phone but I miss those typical Sunday family gatherings ...

I was born in the United States but immigrated to ireland after my children were born. I have raised them here and this has become 'home'. Of course I miss my 'real' home and try to get back as often as possible, but it is never often enough. It is difficult being so far from family and the things that you grew up loving.

Me too I live in a different country than the country where I was born. I was born in France, then lived in Canada for 4 years until I got my citizenship and now I live in the US. I do miss the places where I lived before and made friends but I am also making friends here in the US and I love living here.
