I'm from the USA. (I think most of us are). Specifically I'm from Ashtabula County, which is in the northeast corner of the state of Ohio, on the southern shore of Lake Erie. That puts me about 26 miles from Canada (by boat) and about 50 miles east of the nearest major city, Cleveland, Ohio. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashtabula_County%2C_Ohio

Ya, of course I'm from the U.S. too, and even though that sounds kinda boring I'm very blessed for where I live, let me try and explain. In short I am able to enjoy all different environments right here, I have the mountains in winter covered in snow and ice for winter sports. I have great forests and lakes in the hills with , i have the deserts for all fun motor sports in the sand. There is the valleys where most live its also where Disneyland, California adventure, Knotts berry farm, 6 flags: Magic Mountain, Lego land, Universal Studios, Sea World, Wizard World LA and San Diego Comic-con. Plus there are the beaches for fun in the sun and surf. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you I can reach all these things in about 30 miutes or less from where i live. That's as short as I can get it ;D My desert in bloom what we do with sand dunes one of socal's beaches wonderful warm sun in the valley and great snow up the hill what we do with the ocean great forest are good for biking, hiking, camping, fishing with the lakes and rivers

1) Everybody likes Canadians. (Been tempted to cross that lake and never go home on several occasions - usually following an election). 2) Canada's REALLY big! (Just ask the band called Arrogant Worms) Copy and paste link or it won't work -http://www.kenschaefer.com/zutroy/trish/Arrogant%20Worms%20-%20Canada's%20Really%20Big.mp3
