I always wished I was from a tropical island. I still think that is my ideal location. I would have loved to have a homestead in Australia but I gave up on the idea when I looked at the exchange rate and saw that our dollar wasn't worth beans.

The North is fairly dry/dessert like in climate so the cold does not bite through your clothes like it does in damper places. Warm clothes, common sense and a shot or two of whisky and it's really not that bad! :)

Thank you so much for the welcome, I am really excited be be part the ecoTrain!
