Well maybe at the border in Canada in the east.

I could live in America for six months anyway.

I would much rather learn another language than live with big venomous bugs, so Scandinavia also sounds like a good fit. Poland actually looks very nice and so does Croatia (I have distant relatives still there). So, I would go to Lowes or Home Depot and buy a bunch of screening material for my windows then I'd be ready to move! By the way, I am aware that I currently live somewhere with lots of horrible bugs and I have some regrets. I stay indoors a lot during the long hot Summer here.
Not only that but the fact that they are so far away.

No. Their native language isn't mines..

I just leave Europe for holidays and anglo areas for immigration.

Canada and the UK may be different nations but they are not "foreign" to us. Same could be said for Australia.
Thats what I said about America and they just ridiculed me.
