I said forest/jungle... it would probably be a mediterranean climate or slightly warmer. Moskitoes are an annoyance, but in some of the northern parts of sweden, the moskitoes are so numerous at summer time they can litterally make clouds thick enough to darken the sky... I doubt it can get worse.
And it's still waters that makes for moskitoes, not trees.

that might be true in the north :p we have the ocean and the mediterraneum, it's humid enough so that mosquitoes live. But they do not make clouds, it's far better, but doesn't end to be annoying. Plus you have to count with them for more time than in Sweden, while you have low temps and half the year under darkness :p Anyway, you would become a lobster here. Warmer and happier, Cuba <- :p

Greece is alright btw.

I want what Allama's having.  Oh yes.  Absolutely.  But with one stipulation - my kids all have to live within a half hour's drive.  I plan on baking LOTS and LOTS of cookies, and I'll need grandkids around to eat them all.

Since I probably won't live forever, I would love to end up here. It's Hilo, Hawaii. I went there once in college and the place was so beautiful. I know it looks like a big city, but it's actually peaceful there. Not far from some of the best surfing there is either.

That waterfall looks absolutely gorgeous, Korinna!  Excellent choice.  :)

I had a thought; I want a summer home in Italy.  Can I do that?

Love Al's idea...
Kor: is that Maui? or O'ahu? Cuz O'ahu is very nice, despite all the population on the coast.

Ok, mine. I would love to have a medium-sized house in the foothills of a mountain. Surrounded by trees (deciduous and evergreen) and preferably a lake nearby. It has to be so that it gets snow in the wintertime (yet not too much, too often. Too much being over 3 ft for me) and it can get warm enough to go swimming in the summertime (being above 80 for at least a week to warm the water). I know this seems rather impossible, but my grandparent's house fits perfectly. They lived near Flagstaff, Arizona, where it can still get scorching hot (95 degrees or hotter) in summer and still snow (alot) in the winter. Sorry, no pics. Though I'm sure y'all could, I'm just lazy. :P
Music is the key to the heart.

A BIG improvement ;D

That reminds me of a place near my old folks, It's a tiny piece of forest at the sea beneath one and above another limestone cliff. The forest mainly consist of wether beaten pines and bushes, but all the trees are covered in evergreen vines, basically transforming the forest into a webway of green cozy tunnels where the sunlight sifting through gives everything a warm, golden-green glow.

Yup, and for the moment, it's on military exercise grounds and the training base it was attatched to has been disbanded so it will be left as it is for some time, at least I hope so.

I'd want to live on a chateau in Cote d'Azur. All the lavender and beaches.

Actually, Tal it is on neither of those. It is located on the largest of the islands, which is actually called Hawaii. On the coast there are a few small cities, but the rest is fairly remote.
