Where do you come from?

[Dex]

Well, in kind of a spinoff of The Accent Thread and the Eh!? thread, I thought it might be interesting to hear about the parts of the world you all call home. Not in a creepy give-me-your-postcode kind of way, but just generally. What's life like there? What are the people like? Do you like it? Do you constantly get mugged and want to leave at any cost? Etc?

Just thought it might be fun to learn a bit more about you guys. We seem like a pretty international crew here.
