I live in a quiet mountain town called Hohrod, we're just a little more than 300 persons.

No supermarket here, there's a few in the closest city, 3km from me. The mountains you can see here are called the Vosges, the highest summit is only 1426m in elevation, but we still have a lot of snow in winter.

I'm also only 45min from the german border.

This is the kind of response Im looking for.... with a picture to boot! That is absolutely beautiful!

I live in the suburbs of NY, but I own 50 Acres in the Catskill Mtns, it is Mtn top, 2 mi in on a 4WD Road, no electric, overlooking the Cannonsville Reservoir. It is not zoned for year round living, no mail delivery, and if you call the Fire Dept or Police, they do not have to respond (but they do, if you can get phone service). Cannonsville is the last one in the NYC system, the end of the Catskill Aqueduct (97 miles).

It is about 2,000 feet elevation.

This is a picture from the back of my property, of the Rte 10 bridge crossing the Cannonsville. The Catskill Aqueduct ends there.

Captain, Jake and Jeremy, You guys live in some stunning locations. Absolutely beautiful.

I live here on Cape Cod a man made island of the coast of Mass. A huge tourist attraction
in the summer months. Been here my whole life and was a nice place to grow up when I
was young but now with all the foreigners and summer traffic I hate this place. But work
has me stuck here.

Then you are fully aware that "southern hospitality" is unknown in those two places. Rude to say the least and I came real close to going to jail.

If you were close to going to jail there, then you'll be like home, here.

A good friend of mine moved to Nice a few months ago, and the only thing he want is to come back here.

Sure, they have nice weather, the sea, the sun... but people are the worst, he never shared a drink with his neighbours.

Here, sometimes we have some parties with the whole town. Neighbours are almost like family.

Edit:

And Paris...well, Paris is a beautiful city, there's a lots of nice things to see, and I already had some great parties in some old part of the town.

But most of the parisians consider us like peasants, and the city is crazy expensive. A few years ago, I had a ridiculous small pizza for €22, I had to order another one. Her, if you arder for €22, you can't finish your plate most of the time.
