If you'd have to move to a post Soviet country, what would you choose? (home, living in)

I know that most people completely don't want to live there, but if you'd have to move, what is the lesser of the evils?

Why is Moldova left out?

Interesting, do you consider only economy or something else?

In the eye of the storm - Moscow, no doubt.

I would prefer to live in Russia, since I admire Russian culture and music and since it would be nice to live for once in a powerful country.But I'd sure have my home in Saint-Petersburg, not Vladivostok or Irkutsk or something.

Tough question, none of these countries really appeal to me for long-term living.I love the history of Georgia/Armenia, but don't think I'd want to live there for more than a couple of years. Russia could be interesting, but it would likely have to be one of the major urban centers like Moscow/St. P's. While it might not affect my day-to-day life, I probably wouldn't like the feeling of basically living in a KGB police state. Riga is a beautiful city, so maybe Latvia. Central Asia would come at the bottom.

Just curious- what would be the appeal for you in living in a powerful country?

Ukraine - because of family connections, plus opportunity to make a difference in the lives of Ukraine's many orphaned children (which I also do from right here at home).

[dunno what to put here]

Baltic states, no contest.
