Where in the World????

Bermuda's Flag

I love to trave!! I have been to Vegas, California, Jamaica, Hawaii, Mexico and of course Bermuda. But.....

If I could live anywhere in the world it would be between two or three places. I would first have to live in Paris because I love to shop and to visit museums and I just think Paris, France rocks! I took French in college so I remember a little bit of the language but I would definitley have to brush up on my French skills; Merci Beacoup(Thank You Very Much) The second place would have to be my birthplace; Bermuda. I love Bermuda!!! The beaches and the pink sand, the sun and of course my family is there. Bermuda rocks!!! I also can't forget NY because I did live there for the majority of my life; age 5 until 18!! I :heart: the BRONX!

SO STUDENTS IF YOU COULD LIVE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD WHERE WOULD IT BE AND WHY???

Family is very important to me. I feel it essential that family sticks together and always has each others' backs. Sometimes family isn't always related through blood but instead connected through friendship and love. What do you guys think???
