I adore big cities. My favourite is where I'm moving back to in a few months...Toronto, Canada. I feel completely at ease and at home there and consider it my hometown. I grew up in a small town, which was way too personal and intimate for me...I hated it. I prefer the feeling of being anonymous.

I am likely going to NYC with my boyfriend this summer. :) Would also love to go to LA, San Francisco, Seattle, Paris, London, any big city in Europe, Hong Kong, or Tokyo...or any other of the big cities in Japan. Japanese cities look so awesome.

This misdiagnosis caused me significant stress, which lessened upon finding out the truth about myself from my current and past long-term therapists - that I am an anxious and highly sensitive person but do not have an autism spectrum disorder.

My diagnoses - social anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I’m no longer involved with the ASD world.

York - I actually like the place. It has a pulse, loads of history, good pubs and is human scale. Big cities make me tired, going into a city isn't usually something I enjoy just a means to an end, i.e. work, exhibitions, buying stuff I can't order online or buy somewhere more congenial. Living somewhere like London would kill me, I need space and fresh air, and time away from other people. As long as I can get broadband and there is a 24 hour supermarket that's civilised enough for me. ;)

Savannah GA!

It has the oldest intact city plan in the U.S.

I love the grand old homes, the squares, and the parks.


My vote goes to Savannah, too!

London is a fabulous place to visit but when lived there for a short while and didn't enjoy the experience.
I visited Atlanta for a short while and really liked it there.
Adelaide was also very nice, very clean city.
