I had a weird ex husband who was adamant if I died during our marriage he would bury me in the country of his ancestors which I have no connection to regardless of where I actually died. Annoying but that’s what made me think about it.

I want to be buried where I die, my superstitious side is like, if I am supposed to die somewhere I want to stay dead there.

Swiss people, unless they are talking on trains. especially when they are talking on trains, unless of course they want to be quiet and you, the non Swiss, are talking.

Left the US in 2003 and you couldn’t pay me to go back. I spent part of that time in France, too.
one of the things for me is i bounced around like four countries and im burnt out on adapting now, im going to stay where I am at, at least until I retire. If the climate wars or ww3 haven’t started I will probably retire in France.

every time I go back to the us I am struck at how hard it is. receiving healthcare in the US is like a full time job trying to find network providers and pharmacies and whatever, I don’t understand it and wouldn’t if I went back. Car centric culture also is annoying to me now.

the only thing I miss about the USare extended store hours but France and Germany have almost caught up, especially in big cities. Oh I miss OTC meds too, having to resort to hostage negotiation tactics to get Imodium from a pharmacy is a lot more involved than shoving a couple equate boxes in my cart.
