Status: offline 		Like many "Military brats", though technically, I was a civilian brat - my Father worked for the Army, I don't necessarily feel I am "from somewhere". I did not grow up in the town nor state I was born in.  So I usually just respond that I was born in WV. I lived on Navajo reservation in AZ, and have lived in France, Germany, Georgia, Maryland, Switzerland briefly, North Carolina, and now back in Maryland.

Status: offline 		Born and spent the first 16 years in Iowa, only 10 miles from where I live now actually. In the 24 years inbetween I lived alot of different places for short periods of time. Wyoming, LA, SanDiego, Florida, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Jamaica, Columbia, Vegas, quite a few times back to Iowa in between and sometimes multiples at once. I almost moved to France last year.

Unless I get a damned good reason I plan on staying here in Iowa.
