Αmazing thread! Actually i study in Athens, Greece... but i'm born and i live in Volos, a small town of 100.000 citizens.
This is Volos at night:


As you can see, it combines mountain with sea. You have many options at every period of the year.
This is the ski center:

And among about 150 beaches, this is my favourite one, at Northeast of the mountain.

That rock at the back, is 30 feet tall. I live diving so much. That's one of the reasons i like that beach. The other reason is that it's non-accessed
by car, and you have to walk 1,2 mile. So it's kinda quiet and isolated.  |

Holy crap - everyone lives in such beautiful places! I thought I'd jump on this crazy bandwagon and upload some pictures of Wombourne. It's a little country village (actually, that's a lie. We're the second biggest village in the UK) in the West Midlands in the UK. We're not as "out in the sticks" as we look (there's a big town about 4 miles away) but I think we still like to pretend we live in the countryside! I just got these off google. I might take some better ones myself soon.

Awww, Gill looks like she's having fun!!!
I love the hills in the background. That looks like a nice neighborhood!!
Well, when I get some time, maybe this weekend I'll get out and take some pics of my neighborhood for ya But for now:
[spoiler:3ce50e80d0]
I don't live to far from here (Downtown Sacramento):

This is the bridge that I somewhat drunkenly and begrudingly stumbled across since we couldn't get a cab on New Year's Eve :

And this isn't my street, but it's a good representation of what most of the streets in my neighborhood look like:
[/spoiler:3ce50e80d0]
But I'll try and get out soon and get some of my own shots of my neighborhood & where I live  |

| holly crap thats a lot of snow! We don't usually get more then a few inches of snow in New Mexico...but one year we broke a record and got a foot of snow...and the entire city just freaked out and didn't know what to do...it was pretty funny and crazy. |

LOL! Yeah, a foot of snow would freak me out too. The thing about the snowfall up here, is that it doesn't come all at once. You'll get 4-5 inches a day, but that's everyday, and with the cold, it won't melt, so it just builds and builds up over the months. We got our first real snowfall right before Halloween. We actually did not have a white Christmas. It poured rain Christmas Eve and the snow was pretty much gone the next day. The past few weeks, we've been getting hammered. There's a snow dune behind the house and it's waist deep. They were calling for a "Noreaster" which is a snow storm that moves in from the atlantic coast, which was looking to hit us directly and drop Feet of snow, but then it turned south, much to my relief.
I've never seen a foot of snow come down in one day, and would never like to see it either.  |
