I would live in a remote climate with a view of the ocean preferably, Mombasa, Kenya or Belize City. I prefer locations with cultural influences and were a secondary language is spoken. The ocean is music to my ears and encourages me to learn another language, challenging my creativity and diversity. I have traveled to both East African and Mexico, and like them both.
