Who Gives A Shit: Your Geographical Soulmate?

At the beach in AmalfiA recent convo with @cailinash on Twitter got me thinking about travel again, and I was reminded of this idea of a "geographical soulmate."

I've been using this phrase for awhile, and I'm intrigued by the idea that we all have one. So, just like many people believe that we have "soulmates" in our lives (friends, lovers, husbands, wives), I think we all might actually also have geographical soulmates.

For me, it's Italy (Florence, specifically, but you can pretty much drop my ass off ANYWHERE in Italy and I'll be a happy camper). I've been several times now, and each time I love it more and more. Almost immediately after arriving my first time I had this feeling that I wanted to take this relationship to the next level, and FAST. I would have had unprotected sex with Italy...I didn't even care. I was just so drunk on love. No matter where I went or what I did, I was filled with this overwhelming sense of joy there, and I didn't want to leave. I look at pics now and I literally tear up.

I want a serious relationship with Italy...I want Italy to wear my Letterman's jacket...I want Italy to have my baby (ok, well not that, but you get the picture).

Ok, so spill it: where's your geographical soulmate?
