If so, where are you from?

I did live in the US for little over 3 years but am from Iceland. And no before anybody makes the comment about it being cold NYC gets heck of a lot colder during the winter months and my first Xmas in FL it was colder than it was back home.

    Scotland has always been on my list of places to see. Always visioned it to be gorgeous with nothing but green hills, trees, castle and highlanders in kilts :D

    We've been extremely lucky this winter while most of Europe's been down on their luck we've been having very nice temps.

    I have always wanted to travel to Iceland, and have never met anyone from there. That's really cool.

    Near London. No not the one you are likely thinking of, London Ontario in Canada. We are having a warm day above freezing, but it is supposed to go down substantially below by tomorrow with more snow. I just finished enjoying the snow we have with 30+ minutes of cross country skiing.

    I live on the Isle of Wight just off the south coast of England. I am originally from Toronto, Canada. It gets a lot colder in Toronto than it does here, but I find the winters here tougher. It's a damp cold that goes right to your bones.
