How far do you live from when you were born?

Most people that I know live relatively close to where they were born, but some of them are thousands of miles away from theirs. I live only 30 miles from the hospital that I was born in in Los Angeles. I go out there frequently. How close are you to your city of birth?

Well that's not too bad! You can still make a weekend trip out of it. Unless that's 186 miles of dirt road. Thanks for replying! Aloha!

I am about 1000 miles from where I was born. I used to live like 20 minutes away from there, that was before I met my husband on line and I moved to NY so we could get married.

Oh wow. Well, I guess 3 hrs by plane isn't too bad considering it's a whole other country. I hope it's nice there for you! Thanks for responding. Aloha!

LOL! You sound like you thought that home was just up the street and you just found out that it wasn't! Funny! Just remember, home is always in your heart! By the way, I tried to have someone translate that into tagalog for me (to make you feel at home) but the 2 girls I spoke to could't figure it out!?! Aloha!

Yeah, quite a contrast. Then again, for the change of pace at least it's ONLY 3 1/2 hrs! At least you didn't have to go to another state to get away. Thanks for replying. Aloha!
