• by moomoohead

What part of the world do you live? Post in the comments to get to know each other, do not be too specific.

I grew up in Philadelphia and have moved around a bit. I live south of Chicago in USA for last 6 years. I have lived in Ireland and a bunch of states in America.

Trivia question of the day. This costs all of us 0.79 euros a year? What is it. 1,000 in eRebulic currency to anyone who guess correct answer.

I live in the USA - state of Wisconsin to be specific.

moomoohead Day 4,919, 19:27

Went to the Dells a few years ago and a few times to see the Bucks game.

Suileabhain Day 4,920, 18:51

My Irish ancestors emigrated to the USA in the 1870's - from the Beara Peninsula in County Cork

Jon Barack Bluejacket Day 4,919, 19:49

I went to university in Chicago. I now live in Los Angeles.

moomoohead Day 4,920, 19:07

Two great places and two places I can not afford to attend or live.

moomoohead Day 4,920, 19:07

Where did you grow up?

Uncle Don Day 4,919, 22:38

I live in Umag, Croatia.

Spent almost 2 years in Killkenny, Ireland.

I went to your town. As my memory goes I went to this church at the center of town and climbed these very very scary mid evil steps to the bell tower. I got down and talked to priest at bottom. Told him how afraid I was and he said in the only words of English he knew “the stairs bring you closer to god”. I think that was your town, if not that part of Croatia. Funny the things you remember, beautiful town and I remember a joke a priest makes about stairs. You live in one of the pritiest parts of the world!

Uncle Don Day 4,920, 22:47

Whoa! Didnt expect that! Glad you liked it!!

Pannonian Nomad Day 4,919, 23:49

I've been hiking to Kékes some years ago...

aimeisan Day 4,920, 00:02

I have been there years ago too.

Armanych Day 4,920, 00:55

Táim i mo chónaí i bPoltava.
I live in Poltava, Ukraine. Never have been in Ireland or UK or any other Europe country 🙂

moomoohead Day 4,920, 19:24

A year ago I was training people in Poland. I had an interpreter. I start talking to one of the guys in front through the interpreter and he looks at me lost. Then interpreter starts talking to everyone and tells me the guy is Ukrainian and does not understand polish. He turned out to be a nice guy but I knew I was in trouble there. Teaching in English, through Polish, to someone who does not speak Polish. You know you are in trouble. Ukrainian is on my bucket list of places to go, guessing not of lot of tourists make it there?

Armanych Day 4,921, 00:58

Speaking russian and ukrainian I had no troubles to learn polish. I don't speak fluently due to lack of practice but I read pretty well. I like polish fantasy and SF-writers like Sapkowsky, Wegner,Grzędowicz etc.
Ukraine is beautiful country. There are a lot places to see, from West to Donbass - Lviv, Kyiv, Chernivtsi, Odesa, Karpaty mountains. Even here, in Poltava we have some picturesque views 😉 And it is not so expensive 😉 Surely, good rooms in 4-5* hotel aren't cheap but beer and food and transport are pretty cheap. Last year maybe a few tourists travelling here coz of covid isuues but I hope restrictions would be removed soon.

Releasethe Krakken Day 4,920, 01:29

moomoohead Day 4,920, 19:28

How far is the nearest McDonald’s to where you live. 2min from me in America. Not proud of the fact.

Releasethe Krakken Day 4,921, 01:56

150 kilometres. we never had any big brand take anyways. but almost any town in south africa has a kfc . perhaps answer is normal mcdonald burger you are looking for. i know one of them they said cost always a dollar thought it was big mac but guess that has changed.

SzSziszka Day 4,920, 03:34

In the last 6 months i lived in Mali, Afrika.
Anyway i live in Budapest, Hungary where i finally will go back on next week...

moomoohead Day 4,920, 19:16

Most interesting place listed in these comments has to be Mali. WHY were you there?

SzSziszka Day 4,921, 05:55

Half year assignement to EUTM Mali mission. If you find the facbook page of EUTM Mali, you might find me in some posts as training malian soldiers 😉
Anyway, beside soldiers of many many other countries i served with irish and south africans (from the countreis mentioned in the posts).

Fun fact: Mali is one of the few country where no McDonalds.

Fenoglioteam Day 4,920, 07:03

It´s incredible how a little community like ours is that international.

Another no rl irish here, from the Basque Country 😃

Armanych Day 4,921, 00:37

Basque language is on my wishlist of beautiful and weird languages to learn. 🙂

Fenoglioteam Day 4,921, 03:20

It´s a bit weird to understand what´s going on when you start studying it, but soon you´ll realise that it´s probably one of the most beautiful languages around 🙂
