New Zealand.
Australia.
Many of the pacific islands (then i could have either kiwi or aussie citizenship aswell).
Canada.
Most of Europe.
I think most of Asia would be too much of a culture shock but maybe Japan or India would be interesting.
But that said i do think most of the United States is also a nice place to live.
And having said that it annoys me when people use America to refer exclusively to the United States.

Okay, I tell ya'all why.
Canada seems so nice and clean. For what I heard they don't have all the shitty leaders and etc. etc.PLus, Hockey gear sooo much cheaper over there. Also, Canada has a awesome sherd scene. Go Canada!
Flex: Alaska hasn't passed the all to make weed legal yet. I going to be on the ballot this year. VOTE YES ON 2!!!!!!!

the country you live in makes no difference to who you are and how good you can make your life (except communism). Its all relative. Make the best of what you got and enjoy your life cause its too damn short to worry all the time.

The United Nations does a yearly ranking of `best countries to live in,` which is based on things like health care, literacy rate, life expectancy, and a bunch of other factors, including treatment of women. Canada and Norway usually top the list, followed by a bunch of Scandinavian countries, and the United States usually comes in 7th or 8th. Japan usually comes in right after the US.
Personally, if I had to choose a country other than the US to live in (which I may have to do, depending how the next election turns out), I`d probably go with New Zealand or Japan. I like Canada on a lot of levels, but after living in sub-arctic weather for the last few years, I don`t know if I`d want to move to a cold place. But yeah, Canada has good shred, friendly people, and better government than the US. If it weren`t for the cold, I`d definitely choose Canada.
New Zealand is appealing to me because the climate is mild, the people are ridiculously friendly (at least to me), and I like a lot of the government policy (it`s like the non-evil version of Australia
). Plus, there`s good shred, and good diversity of cute girls.
I`ve been living in Japan for 2 years now, and I`ll be here at least another year. That means I obviously like it a good deal, but if I want to stay here for the long haul, I`d really have to study the language. On the plus side, people here are also real friendly, and the shred scene has a great vibe. Also, the weather doesnt suck, provided you live anywhere south of me.
I think this question would make an interesting poll.

Well, the only thing that I don't like about the United States is gun law. Other then that, it is up there with the other two.
Australia
Not only because I'd want to shred it up 24/7 with Mr. O'Wheel but the weather is ridiculously warmand I'd love to go rock climbing in the outback sometime. The only thing that scares me is the sharks
Sweden
Friendly people and gorgeous women. I don't know why else I would move there, except that it's been ranked as one of the best places to live by the UN.
