    Liverpool for me. My mates an Everton fan so I've gone over with him and a few others a couple of times now and really loved it.

    Anyway - where's the Sao Paulo option? :mad:

    It's bigger than New York, more multi-cultural than London, more liberal than San Francisco and warmer than Miami.

    and easier to get mugged and stabbed than all four put together!

    Could be, but saying N.Korea instead of Iran would've been more affective for me as despite what the Jewish-run media say about Iranian society.

    Used to be San Francisco but every day that I am in Kuala Lumpur I fall more in love with it and it is now beginning to win the battle for my heart.

    KA..really?

    I was there in 2010 for the past part of a month and it was a bit grim if I'm being honest.

    I have heard it is a completely different place in the past 3 years alone. There is constant development and it is just a really modern, cosmopolitan city with so many vibrant cultures blending together. I love it.

    I should reevaluate- I spent a week in Belfast last month and that really was grim. There is nothing good I can say about the place- a weird hybrid of a ****e UK city and **** Irish market town.

    I've been to a few of those places, not many, but voted Dublin. I've had a lot of craic in Dublin. It's a good place to visit.

    San Francisco is probably better all round but the craic...it's better in Dublin.

    Don't know how many people have been to Wellington in New Zealand, but it really is a cool cool place. Lots of things to do, great public areas, awesome museums, good bars, and everything is walking distance.

    Out of the bigger cities I really liked Rome, so much history everywhere you look.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,786 ✭✭✭wakka12


    Budapest I would say. And that was during january when it was -6C everyday..so Im sure it'd be even nicer in summer! Just absolutely stunning city, barely any of it was destroyed during the war so its an almost perfectly preserved city..history everywhere you look

    London has a buzz it took me years to learn to appreciate. I really regret not having spent a few years there in my early twenties.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,813 ✭✭✭Noveight


    I'll be heading to Paris in a few weeks, hope it's as nice as my last visit.

    I'd go with Berlin from the above list but with special mentions to Lisbon, Melbourne and Bristol


  • Registered Users Posts: 850 ✭✭✭Hans Bricks


    New York without a doubt. Although minus the endless numbers of African American men trying to intimidate everyone into "donating" them money for the "free" blank mixtape.

    Portland Oregon is a great spot

    every second building seems to be selling craft beer


  • Registered Users Posts: 552 ✭✭✭mark_jmc


    Sticking with Portland,
    Portland Maine is a lovely city

    Way less craic than it used to be unfortuantely. Over half the live music venues have closed down in the last eight years or something (around that anyway). Rent anywhere Zone 2 has spiralled so people are being pushed out of gaffs that were traditionally lived in by young people interested in partying. Pubs are shutting down everywhere and being replaced by flats. The whole culture of squatting and the mad parties they generate has been all but killed off. Apparently artists are flying out of the place in order to go to Berlin etc.

    London is becoming increasingly and depressingly homogenous and dull.

    Has anyone been to Ronda in Spain?

    I dont know much about this situation in london..but is it just nightlife venues getting hit a bit? Because just nightlife becoming more boring doesn't mean a whole city is becoming dull, theres a lot more to cities than their nightlife..!
