Hum. I don't know either. I do know I don't like the feel of it. Wow, the Middle East! That's not my area of knowledge!! Being that you're from this area generally, but it's just me, I would just come south instead of halfway across the world. Do you like the water? I mean there are tons of mini climates in Texas. It's the most patriotic type gun-holding place in our country! The coast has many storms; I hear the new capital of the country may be there in the future. I'd think about culture for comfort, but again I'm like that. And language, but you may speak Arabic or something!

("don't like the feel of it." = The feel of Florida.) The people are usually there for travel; I guess those living there could be kind enough. There's something not down to earth about it. I think there are a lot of tucked away small towns that would be very safe, since I've driven through it, I've seen them. Do trees, natural habitat matter to you? Food options? What floats your boat? (Like in rural areas, you can't get as much a variety of international foods.)
