What countries have you lived in?
How long did you live there?
Were you a child or an adult?
What is your most favourite memory of the country?

For me its -

What countries have you lived in? Australia and Japan
How long did you live there? 19yrs Australia, 2yrs Japan
Were you a child or an adult? Child in Australia, Japan when I was 18 and 21
What is your most favourite memory of the country? That would have to be Australia :p Living near the beach and going there all the time in summer, long, lazy summer holidays... just anything to do with summer!

Never been anywhere else, so guess that partly explains why I won't be staying much longer...

My entire life I stayed in the same place... that is probably why Im moving Summer 2008 to Japan for 2 months and if I like it, I'll stay for good.

I've only lived in the US so far, spending no more than a week in any foreign country.

I will be moving to a Hispanic nation (likely Guatemala, with Peru as a second choice) and Japan for a period of one to several months each for language schools. I hope to do this in the next year to two years.

Depending on what doors open up, later I may stay in either place for a more extended period of time.

born and raised in Korea about ten years, then move to china for 7 months, now living in US. I did went to England for about a week, but that doesn't really count as living.

I've lived in the Czech Republic (2 years) and in Germany (17 years) so far.
I absolutely won't stay here though, I plan to move to Australia, the US or Japan as soon as possible. I am unsure of where to settle down then yet but I'll visit as many places as I can.

I suppose it depends on what you define by "living." Due to being in the military, "living" is a state of transitory nature...I'll just list all the countries I've spent more than a week in and let you decide.

Greece - 1 month - technically adult - I adored almost everything about Greece. My favorite memory would either be watching a storm roll in off of Olympus (awesome!) or standing at the place that was once Thermopylae. Going to the temple of Apollo at Delphi was pretty cool too.

Turkey - 1 month - adult - Getting drunk and hucking shit off the hotel balcony at the UN Summit

Germany - 2 years - adult - Getting wasted and hanging out with the German hotties! Whoooo!

Canada - 2 months - adult - Eh...had some fun, but nothing in particular springs to mind.

Kyrgyzstan - 2 weeks - adult - Getting drunk in a club we shouldn't have been in, hooking up with some Russian girls we shouldn't have talked to, winning 3,500 bucks at a roulette table run by the Russian mob (and having one of them buy me a drink), and scoring with the chick running the wheel...all in all it was two of the best weeks of my life. I know it's too short to say I lived there...but I had to mention it, just because it was so awesome.

Qatar - 6 months (in progress) - adult - very little...this place is boring as all hell...it might be more interesting if we could do anything...

I also spent about two weeks living just outside London with some friends...it was pretty cool. Everywhere else I've been hasn't been long enough to be concidered living there.

Canada and that's it.. this country is big enough, just moving around feels like another country, kinda like a country in a country with quebec/canada :P
