Hey!! Why was the "where are you from?" thread closed?!
 

I didn't get to post on "The Downs, an international board. Where are you from?". This may seem a tad selfish but i want to have my say.
I was born in Brisbane, Queensland, Ausrtalia, lived there for eight years. moved to Utah, U.S.A. for five years and i am currently in Iceland and have been here for two and a half years. First read J.T. when i was thirteen, and have been ever since.

P.S. please bon't close this topic BW I know there are still people who want to tell their story. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

HI IM A KIWI GIRL LIVING IN WELLINGTON AND HAVE ONLY LEFT MY COUNTRY TWICE.
I LOVE TO TRAVEL ESPECIALLY TO SEE THE LOTR SITES(MY DAD WORKED AT THE QUARRY WHERE THEY FILMED THE MINES OF MORIA.

FROM THE GIRL IN AOTEAROA(NEW ZEALAND)

That's so awesome Morgul Queen, I wanna be in the movie!! Well, I'm from New York, as you see at the bottom. Not the city. I lived farther upstate but moved when I was 7. We used to go hiking everyday, it was awesome. But there was like no civilization there! Oh well, I've lived in Ny my whole life. I'm moving to Scotlnad or Vancouver one of these days, I'll make it happen!!! Or New Zealand or England, whichever..

I come from Denmark, the worst place on earth... No actually, it is so great a country, that we are not allowed to tell it, because then everyone would move to DK. I love travelling and have been many places in Europe, but I would love to go to USA, and maybe meet some other Barrowdowners... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I'm from Good Ole Englandia! I love where I live but I would love to travel a bit.

That's really awesome I would loooove the experience of going to moria. It seems really beautiful there. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I'm from Massachusetts, sixty miles north of Boston. I've never been out of America, but I want to go to Ireland and Scotland.

I'm from Alberta, Canada and besides going to California to see my aunt i haven't left Canada before. [img]smilies/redface.gif[/img] I wish i was in the movie. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Welcome to the Barrowdowns all ye Newly Deceased personnel! Post often, and I hope to see you around more! Anyways, I'm from Nevada, and I've been to all 50 states in the US, and I really really really want to go to New Zealand to soak up some scenery. And Gimli, it's obvious why you want to go to Moria. You're an Elf! I'd prefer... Rivendell.

hi, i live in Ontario, Canada, but currently iam stuck at the bottom of my bottomless pit and cannot get out.

Hullo, I was born in Rivendell but have recently moved to Rhûn, the woods by the sea in the far east. In reality, I live in Idaho, in the good ol' USA!
BTW, Gollum, I LOVE your new pic! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I've been wondering why the original thread was closed. Has anyone PMed the Barrow-Wight about this?
For my part, I was born in Kiev, Ukraine. Am ethnically Russian, but hold Ukrainian citizenship (this is the kind of thing that happens when superpowers fall apart into pieces). Have lived in North Carolina since I was 10, and am now going to college at....at...Duke (which means I won't be out of this blasted state for another 4 long years).

I was born in a crossfire hurricane,
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain,
But it's alright, now, in fact it's a ....

WAIT A MINUTE! &$%^$^$^ Me with a CHAINSAW! I gotta stop doing my Strolling Bones imitation... In B Major, shall we?
