Which country would you rather live in: Wales, Italy or New Zealand?

Wales: Tom Jones and the Stereophonics, cool landscapes, beautiful women.

I choose Italy. Although I notice that a country that is more western and northern is better, it is still hard for me to be away from the sun. The sun makes me happy and strong. Active and successful. Competitive and positive. I do not succeed much in the northern and western countries. On the other hand, they are hard to beat where there is sun. I love music and everything dry. I will choose Italy.

Ok, now I have more data to answer. New Zealand never, paranoid political establishment during the plandemic, for one positive case the entire country was locked down. Orwellianesque 1984 dystopia.

Wales, I don't particularly like the UK context, altough Wales is less bad regarding many of the problems I believe. Shitty weather doesn't help. Second place for me.

Italy sounds better, I would adapt easily and it's a far more interesting country and culture than the others.

I've never been to Wales, but I would imagine it's a lot like England, so, rainy. in contrast southern Italy and mind you, Malta, are very beautiful places, so heres my answer.

New Zulland by a but, probably. For us it is kind of like a bizarre overseas Australian state, the nature being the main difference. Would need to adjust to the irritating accents and obsession with Rugby Union, but the same can be said for Wales. Wales is too poky. Italy is a non-starter as I'd never live in a non Anglophone country.

Contrary to popular belief, Wales is not anything like as rugby-mad as NZ: in fact, rugby hardly has a presence in North and Mid Wales at all, and throughout the country around three times as many people play football as rugby. This is reflected in both Cardiff City and Swansea City having somewhat bigger attendances than Cardiff RFC and the Ospreys most of the time.

Italy, because theres good weather and it's in Europe so not too far away. I've never been to Italy, but I've been to Spain and Greece, which is nearby.
