i would like to move to barcelona, spain, because i like gaudi and his creativitity, and i heard the catalunyans have interesting tension with madrid that maintains their own language and unique cultural character apart from standard spanish. i can also go to ibiza parties, the balearic islands, beach, sea, swim. i like urban street culture, fashions and i like colorful people and places.

they're pretty racist over there, especially if you're in Barcelona
Barcelona is an amazing city. One of my favorite places. Guadi was a true genius. The lines and surfaces on his buildings reflecting different lights during the day is something I will never forget. Also I met my favorite classical guitarist in the middle of the street...
Great memories and I am finding excuses to go back.

Malta. I've visited just about every country in Western and Central Europe (even the tiny states of Lichtenstein and Andorra!) but I've never been to Malta.

Kyoto.
Always had a thing for that city.
LA or somewhere in Hawaii. the former is probably more practical. :P
EDIT: oops, question asks for a dream move to a place i've never been. in that case, i change it to uhm...somewhere beachy and coastal
with warm weather and a laidback culture.

Something like the Bay Area, but with warmer beaches.
I've been there tons of time but I don't care! It's the only place I want to live! NYC baby!
But if you're just talking about visiting then I think I'd like to visit Australia or New Zealand... There Steve I didn't just say Australia... I have love for NZ too... =P
Although I never been to either and really don't know a whole lot about them... Just seems so interesting... Oh and Japan too... B/c I've never been there either...

I don't want to live anywhere I haven't been because I don't know if I'd even like it. But we're very much considering a move to New Zealand or Australia. Preferably New Zealand, less nasties and Ozzies in speedos.

if you like natural enviroment and a very laid back country. relaxed life, and eating 6 times a day, hehee, then aotearoa is way better then oz. except for the traffic jams on that freeway from the south heading into auckland, which would remind you of los angeles.

bangkok?

wheres your dream place that you never been before?
Where can my sick, perverse mind go with this? :biggrin:
Seriously, I have no idea. Never wanted to move to a place I've never been to before. Maybe Osaka, Japan.

Bristol's OK and the university's pretty good in spite of the whole Oxbridge Reject thing. Hahaha! Can't stand Doncaster and Leicester though. I'm indifferent about Durham. It's pretty, but the Northerners irk me in ways that I cannot describe.

A sandy beach in one of the south pacific islands, perhaps Tahiti.

playboy mansion. Wow, if I got to live there....
ok ok, seriously though, probably Melbourne, Australia. Or Hawaii. Any place with a beach front that's relatively close, I'd probably dig.

I'd never live in Auckland. I'd rather spend some extra $$$ and get a house on Waiheke and commute by ferry. If it's the north island we'd probably end up around a Wellington suburb or Christchurch on the south island.
