[Edited]
Even Yehuda, central Israel (a few kilometers from the Mediterranean).
Population: around 9,000. Roey ("DureX" ) lives here too. \o/
I know it looks like a dump because of all those fields around it, but it's actually right next to a big city (Netanya), and just 30 minutes from Tel Aviv. We're not farmers.

I couldn't find any neat-looking map though... oh well.
Oh, and here's something for ShMac. 
![[Image: text_getimage1.asp?code=369]](http://www.even-yehuda.muni.il/a_rashut/text_getimage1.asp?code=369)
I really like the photos you people post here (I'm writing this in an edit, so I've already seen a few posts ahead). I envy you people, you live in places I consider vacation resorts. Well, except for marissa. 
Anyway, I really don't think it's a good idea to show exactly where you live. 
Speaking of which, why do I get the feeling WDZ won't cooperate in this thread?

this is where i live. its a village in Wiltshire,England. it has about 900 people living in it, i think, and there is a school and a church. it is okay, but not that big and can get VERY boring!! but it is cool, and there is a town nearby and Swindon is not too far away.
