I enjoy the natural geography
I enjoy being relatively close to my parents
I speak the language. My favorite country in the world would require a new language and complete re-socialization, a task I'm much too lazy for.

Honest reasons. Family ties is probably the main reason for most. Which is your favorite country?

What language would that be? I've been to nearly twenty countries. Only a few would I consider staying and even then, only for part of the year. Spain and Italy were the two main choices for myself. I'd also consider staying at Israel if it weren't for the muslim terrorist. You could not pay me enough money to ever go back to any muslim nation or France. I had a better time in Bulgaria and Ukraine than I did in France.
Is this where you call me a "young buck" and tell me of your decades traveled through previously undiscovered lands?
10 Most Suitable Countries for American Expatriates
Spain Spain has a lower cost of living compared with central and northern Europe. Mix that with its dynamic location and lively culture and it’s clear why Spain has become a top destination for expats from around the world. The European culture will be familiar and accessible for Americans, and getting around speaking only english should be a breeze.
Spain also has historical and cultural wealth that’ll keep any expat’s mind afloat. Also, it’s become an extremely popular destination for college students.
I just looked at the OPs profile and read a few of his early posts, Splains a lot !
Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya ! I don't believe a word this guy says while he is "thinkin about it"
I second that....he should head to a more athiest kind of place i guess.

The dumbing down is the part that allowed the rest of the unsettling and upsetting things to unfold.
I admit that things are going downhill in our country but I highly doubt that life in another country would be that much better. I love my country, even with all of its flaws and sins. I'd rather stay and fight for my country versus abandoning it to some other "utopian" country.

I think it's another case of "the grass is always greener"
I've been to Spain and it is a very nice country. Nice people, good food, good shopping, and good land. If rich enough, I'd happily buy a summer home in Spain but I wouldn't want to live there exclusively. I'm no fan of PETA but I don't like the idea of bull fights. When I was innocent I imagined the bull fights like in the cartoons or movies. Never knew it involved swords and the slaughter of the bull after the fight. Some in Spain are trying to ban the sport. Hope they make progress. Malaga, Barcelona, Rota, Benidorm, and Palma were the cities of Spain I visited. If you love art then Barcelona is for you. I was really fascinated by the building designed by Senor Gaudi. Malaga was more of a metropolitan city. Rota is a seaport used by the Spanish and American Navy. Benidorm is a more modern resort city. Palma is where you go to play.
