hello mylot, it's a lovely morning here in Florida, how is everyone doing today? many mylotters have talked about traveling, and I know there are people from all over the world on this website. what is the biggest city you've ever been to, either visiting or living in? do you enjoy big city life? or are you more drawn towards smaller towns? the biggest city I've ever been to was probably Las Vegas. everywhere you turn there's something new to experience. how about you? I'd love to hear your experiences!

My answer is: New York, Los Angeles, London, Moscow, Cairo, Istanbul. Thrilling for a visit but not for a longer stay or living there.

@isweartokira I'm much older than you. Who knows what your list will look like when you've reached my age.

The larger I lived in is Paris. I went to kindergarten and elementary school there, later to college, and I worked a few years in Paris. The larger I visited is Istanbul, it is about 15 millions inhabitants, bigger than the urban agglomerations of Paris or London, and quite 2x New-York. I prefer small cities to big cities : cheaper housing, better quality of life.

@kepweng Not sure, I heard that housing was more expensive in Hong Kong than in Paris...

I visited New York a few times. It is a huge city but I wouldn't want to live there. Too busy!

I have been to New York City a few times and it's nice to visit but I definitely would never want to live there. I prefer the country life we now live. =)

The biggest city was London for me Bree. It seemed never ending and always something to do.

Probably New York City. No plans to do that again. Miami is the second one that comes to mind. Smaller places are better for me.

There are many big cities. I've been to many of then - New York City, LA, Chicago, London, Paris, Hog Kong, Shanghai, Rio de Janeiro, etc. and loved them all. I like close to a big city up north, but prefer to visit and remain in my quiet little town.

Been to Orlando and Las Vegas (The Kids Disney World and the adult Disney World ) . Biggest cities would be LA, NY and Hong Kong although Bangkok and Manila would have to be up there. Not one of the biggest but my city Sydney is still big with a population of 5 mill.

New York City is the biggest city I've visited. I definitely wouldn't live in a city of that size.
