    ...yeah sorry for kinda ruining it, but I'm a cityboy through and through, and - much to some of my more green-fingered friends' dismay - I don't really understand the countryside at all. I mean if I look at it I just think to myself 'meh, a tree, a stream, big whoop,' I can't really appreciate the beauty of the scenery or whatever I'm supposed to do. I prefer urban landscapes, there's something about the lines, the angles, the textures and the architectural stamp of humanity, the feeling of habitation...yeah, cities are far more aesthetically resonant to me...

    I'm with hatzel 100% on this one. Countryside just feels so.. desolate. Isolated. Lonely. The city is bustling with life and humanity.

    The Kurdish region is so much greener than most people think it is. I love the mix of barren mountains and lush forests.

    Wow some people in this topic have really taken their fetishism of human progress waaaay too far.

    Anyway, here's where I grew up:




    And when Marx says, 'Hitherto the philosophers have only interpreted the world in various ways', what that 'hitherto' means is not a renunciation of theory and that all we need to do is wade in with our fists and there will be no more need for thought. This idea is in fact fascist, and it would be grossly unjust to Marx to impute such views on him.

    I traveled all around the south when I was a kid and saw some really pretty countryside as a result, but none of that impressed me as much as the view of New York City from atop the Empire State Building.
