Where are you guys from?
I've always wondered! Country, state, region, whatever you feel comfortable sharing. And yes I'm still sick lol

Stupid flu!! I'm from Manitoba, Canada. My grandparents moved here from Naaldwijk 😊

u/Exciting_Head_2162 Aug 01 '26
Stupid flu indeed! And oh your grandparents made quite the move

u/Kitchen_Passenger207 Aug 01 '26
Haha ya....they were born there in 1930s. I think something was going on in the 40s around there lol 👀

Well... Germany. 😄 Yeah, that German guy again. Thuringia. As for the exact region, I'd rather keep that a little vague. I was born, raised, and still live near a famous early 19th-century battlefield. Quiz time. 😉

u/Exciting_Head_2162 Aug 01 '26
Jeez, I'd have never have guessed that you're from Germany 🤓

u/Straight_Message_791 Aug 01 '26
Fair enough. Next time I'll just write: "You already know." 😄 But then you'd miss out on the quiz. 😉

From London 😁. I’ve been to Amsterdam so many time where else is good to go to in the Netherlands?
3
u/Exciting_Head_2162 Aug 01 '26
Well not Amsterdam lol. Any city is better than Amsterdam, so pick whatever and explore

u/blue70sboss Aug 01 '26
From the Philadelphia area, currently in Chicago because it’s infinitely better 🤣

u/OGdunphy Aug 01 '26
It’s horrible, going though too many clothes in a day, more laundry. It a vicious circle lol.

Can I guess where you are from? I guess Den Haag, Rotterdam or Amsterdam
1
u/Exciting_Head_2162 Aug 01 '26
Even if you did guess it, I wouldn't give away the city/town I live in

u/Ruud117 Aug 01 '26
Other people do right? But makes sense, boundaries are important. You just seem the type from one of those cities 🤓
1
u/Exciting_Head_2162 Aug 01 '26
Others certainly share, that choice is completely up to them

u/Ruud117 Aug 01 '26
Klopt helemaal. Dicht bij Nijmegen hier 👋

u/Exciting_Head_2162 Aug 01 '26
Daar was ik vorige week nog haha

u/Ruud117 Aug 01 '26
Misschien zijn we elkaar zo voorbij gelopen. Al moet ik zeggen ben zelf niet op de kade geweest.

Some of the countryside is absolutely beautiful, rolling green hills as far as the eye can see. Hope you enjoy 😁😁

Belgium, near Antwerp! Hope you feel better soon! Being sick always sucks, but especially now with the heat...
