@Gina as long as it isn't of fire.

@Gina
Now, all that is screaming "Australia", but then you mentioned time difference being a thing. Ah well, you're stuck with Europe. I have some sympathy. I had planned to follow some of my in-laws to Australia when I left the Navy. Then life got in the way.

@Gina there is a house for sale 3 numbers from ours. In your budget, small garden, 15 min from Paris by train, big forest a few kilometers away. And nowadays Paris is sunny?

@Gina Croatia: Zagreb or Split (or Pula , Rijeka, Zadar)

[toychicken@mastodon.social]

@Gina Portugal fits a lot of this too

@manfredzielinski @Gina Don’t underestimate Salamanca. Ancient university town with international vibes

@Gina @elricofmelnibone @madalex @becha if I may dare to dream, I have always¹ wanted to co-found a floating intentional community on the water in the Mediterranean like a *Free City* perhaps with Italy or Spain as a host, but with less libertarianism than the broader movement.

@maique @Gina @gvlx this message is so unnecessary.

[eigenwijs@social.lol]

@Gina that sounds like an interesting optimization problem

I would use a map and a drawing compass instead of a spreadsheet to make it fun

[seq@infosec.exchange]

@Gina A bit off-topic, but I just have to point out what a brilliant picture that is!

[creepy_owlet@mastodon.online]

@Gina any city will be without winter if you wait long enough... *checks the temperature outside and cries*

[maique@social.lol]

@fmors @Gina @gvlx Of course it is.

[krisfreedain@fosstodon.org]

@Gina we'd both choose very differently but it's so fun to see a friend with this exciting choice/adventure in front of them 🫶

[casparvdburgh@mastodon.social]

@Gina why do Italians hate Italy for living?

[krisfreedain@fosstodon.org]

@Gina from the cities I have visited, (and actually could see myself in), Lisbon is what comes to mind for your outline of needs/wants

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@casparvdburgh fhe economic situation isn't great, unfortunately.

[hansbot@mastodon.green]

@manfredzielinski @Gina They have a local airport and it’s not too far from Madrid. The Ávila ranges are awesome for nature hikes

[becha@social.v.st]

@travisfw @Gina @elricofmelnibone @madalex theatres China Mievile book about that

[gorkaroldan@mastodon.social]

@Gina Málaga?

[casparvdburgh@mastodon.social]

@Gina ah yes, that rings a bell.
