RE: Which Countries Drink The Most Alcohol?
There has to be a correlation between cold, boring and long winters and alcoholism. Throw in desolation also. I went to college in the snow belt and such a correlation certainly existed for me. Just look how many drunks can slam a bottle of Stoli in Siberia.
You made an interesting point ! I am from Nothern France (Lille) when it's ALWAYS raining and guess what we are known for our big alcohol consumption! So yeah alcohol and the weather are definitely connected ;)
I love Lille, that's where my parents-in-law are!
Really ? Such a nice coïncidence ! But yeah a very good city and welcoming people ;)
lille's wazemmes weekend market is extremely dynamic. Not only can you get cheap but good food. :D
Ahah amazing this is where I live and yeah is one of the most dynamic place. And not only ob the market. The neighbourhood has improved since 2-3 years and severals bars, coffees or interesting restaurants opened. I really advice it ! :)
I lived in North Dakota for 2 years. I have a drinking problem now.
Yeah. That would be the pits. My mom lived there as a teen and has told me how rotten it was.... colder than S. Dakota and Montana and without the scenery.
