Where in Middle-Earth do YOU live? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Not like this hasn't been said, but probably the Shire. Rolling hills, woods, etc. Small streams, I love it but would rather be in Gondor sometimes.

I've decided that since the movies came out that I literally live in Middle-Earth. NO, I don't live in New Zealand. I live in British Columbia Canada, which was rumored to have been thought of in the location for the movies. BC looks so much like New Zealand (or the other way around) it's uncanny. The mountains here are smaller, BUT their still mountains. Everytime I take a BC Ferry, and I look over the mainland mountains, covered in Mists, guess what I think of.

To be less specific, I live in a relatively small country that is separated from the rest of mainland Asia...an island (actually, there are 7, 107 of them!) standing in the midst of waters...more like Tol Eressea, I guess. Or Numenor? Or the isle of Balar? I don't know...I'm lost. Help?

Put those three together, add 7,104 and then you have it.

I live in Oregon, which is basically trees and mountains all over the place.

I live smack dab in between two mountains, so I guess I could say that I live in the Misty Mountains. However, at my college campus, you can see this place that I swear looks like Rohan. Unfortunately, a river, (which has been dubbed Anduin by me) runs through it and I don't think the Anduin runs through Rohan. Oh well. Maybe I should call the valley Amon Hen instead of Rohan. Then I can dream about orcs running around down there, shooting Boromir.. Ahh...

MAEG!
