If you could be anywhere in the world at this very moment, where would you want to be? Or are you happy where you are?

I'm sitting at work (dull!) and I'm about to head out to go to my afternoon classes (much more dull!) and I wish I was somewhere else. A foreign country, I think, somewhere I've never been before. Maybe England. I'd like to see the castles.
 
Hey I play golf :wave: We should hit up a short 9 when you're here :lol:

I havent played in a few years though :reject:
 
Sigh, I think about it all the time. It's like the lyrics to that song Anywhere But Here:

All too often I set my life aside.
All Too often my dreams went sailing by.
A chance of freedom, a chance of fate, a chance I'll take.

Oh leave it all to disappear. I'm heading anywhere but here.

All too often the dreams I've dreamed have died.
And all too often I'm never satisfied.
A chance of freedom, a chance of fate, a chance I'll take.

* Oh leave it all to disappear. I'm heading anywhere but here.
Because I want a life, a souvenir.
I'll find it anywhere but here. *

I'll find it anywhere but here.
I'm heading anywhere but here


I want to be way out in the country, peaceful and beautiful in the mountains, with my cats, no traffic, and no one to stare at me or bug me or stress me out.
 
Something like this, or a real posh hotel where I could sit by the pool all day reading, napping, listening to CDs, and be waited on hand and foot.

I WILL arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart's core.

--WB Yeats
