...got married! Or yesterday, anyway. :) :) :) I'm wasn't going to come straight home and go on NS after my wedding! But we had a little 'problem', thats now been resolved - I'll tell you later what we decided to do. But i was just wondering what you lot would do in the following situation?
I'm from Luxembourg and have lived in Luxembourg for nearly all my life (I spent two years in Congo and Uganda doing charity stuff) but my then boyfriend is Australian and lives in Australia. So we had to choose were to live. Where would you choose?

Anyway, back to celebrating.
I got married

Somewhere equidistant.. or Australia.

Congratulations! :)

I'd definitely choose Luxembourg, unless you want to live alongside numerous deadly insects.

I would denfinitely stay in Europe. Living at the ends of the Earth gets old.
So...WHY are you on NS right after your wedding again?

Congratulations! :)


Thankyou.:)

Congratulations on your wedding!

I'd live in New Jersey, but it's not for everybody.

I'm not. i'm on it a day afterwards. And remember the time difference - its very late here, and my husbands friends have just rung up to congratulate him - and me, once he finally gets off the phone, so he's busy, but I've got nothing to do. So why not?

Congratulations. I hope your marriage is a happy one.

Congratulations, Maria!

My initial impulse would be to live where I was most familiar, so if I were you I'd have gone for Luxembourg, but then again, if I really loved the guy enough to marry him, I suppose I could allow myself to be talked into Australia (you mustn't let him think he's getting away with something, after all).

Congratulations!!! =^_^=

I haven't been to either place, but Australia seems like a pretty nifty place from what I've seen. Plus, they have kangaroos!

When did I tell you my name?:confused:

why not dublin? i live there. that makes it fantastic enough.

why not dublin? i live there. that makes it fantastic enough.

But what if you move away? All the fantasticness would be gone!:(

On principal so I would have to say Cork.Second cities are always better fun than capitals...;) :D

no that it is true.

Congratulations!

Move to Spain. You've got everything from lush green land in the Galicia to dry desert in Almeria. Luxembourg and Australian climates all in one package!

I love Spain, but, I wanted to live in an already set up house (ie, mine or his) rather than have to start all over again.

The answer...
...I let myself be persuaded to move to Australia. I still need to fill in all those forms with their funny point system etc, but the furniture is on its way. But some of the old stuff is so huge it wouldn't have been very convinient on a plane -it had to go by ship! It'll take ages to get there! (The item in question was a 'sidecabinet' that covered the entire sidewall of my sitting room! And i'm not leaving it behind as it cost shedloads of money to have shipped over from Hong Kong two hundred years ago. So I coughed up the money for a space on the ship)

Though, with my luck, the ship'll sink in sight of Australia. *touches wood*

Congratulations! :fluffle:

As to the question of where to live, I'm afraid I won't be any help as I've only visited Luxembourg, and then only for a day.

I'd have to go to Australia first if I'm to compare...Just...don't get run over.

I would denfinitely stay in Europe. Living at the ends of the Earth gets old.

Ends of the earth? I believe the other option was Australia, and it's not exactly a backwater.

Good luck, I hope you enjoy yourself here, but given you're newly married, that shouldn't be too much of a problem. ;) :p

I say have the best of both worlds. Live for a couple of years here in Aus, then go back to Luxembourg for a couple of years.


Edit: Which part of Aus are you moving to?

Both you you get cloned, you and clone husband stay in Luxembourg, husband and clone you move to Oz.

Query: Are you male or female?

Also, congratulationsismstuffydoodaayippieyay!

Congratulations on the marriage. :) And enjoy Australia. If you're living anywhere near Melbourne, find Kanabia and bug him about my chocolate...;)

I'd have preferred to stay in Europe, and, as an English speaker, I would have enjoyed living somewhere where it's not an official language. But then, this isn't about me.

australia

because I personally would like to see how it is, and learn more bushmen tricks, but the deadly *insert animal/insect here* argument stands, but still a close favor on australia for me personally. what you should d0? how the fuck should I know?

australia is sunny and nice
luxembourg is part of the EU


its a tough call :-S

Congratulations!

Oh, they're everywhere. I don't know how I sleep at night. I have funnel web spiders attempting to crawl into my ear cavities, toxic snakes under my bed, and the ever-present threat of drop bears to contend with should I venture outside.

Congrats!

I would have gone to Australia, too, I think. But then I'm from Germany, so Luxembourg isn't all that exotically enticing. :p

Ah, that's good to hear. So if they're all busy with you I can totally come crash on the couch. Why, thank you! *books flight*

You might get swooped by vicious magpies on the way here from the airport and lose an eyeball. It's safer if you give me the money for a flight to Europe. :)

Are the drop-bears poisonous?

I'd live in Luxembourg, even though Australia is cool.

Luxembourg just seems/looks awesome. Such a rich, elite place with a cool culture and sweet language.

Though like I said, Australia is cool and not a bad place to live at all. Sure beats Uganda and Congo;) :p

Do they have gay marriage in luxembourg yet?

(this thread was bound to go this way eventually)

Don't look at me in that tone of voice...

Yes, yes they are.

Don't look at me in that tone of voice...
I'll look at you in whichever tone of voice I goddamn please.

CONGRATULATIONS!

I just witnessed the scariest exchange of smileys ever.

Australia is pretty disconnected from things. I'd rather live on a continent that is more...involved.
