    Both villages are about 800 mts altitude, in half way from Antelies to Bikfaya

    Originally I am from a very small village in the south of England....semi rural area ...peaceful & quiet . Then we moved to Australia & lived for some years in a major regional city ...that's where I grew up as a kid , went to school etc before we moved to a coastal area closer to Brisbane & I completed my limited education & started work..

    Since then I have moved around a bit , that is until we settled in this little seaside town just north of Brisbane....built a home on an acreage block that backs on to a tidal wetland area & 32 years later are still there..

    Our little seaside town is no longer little...we now have shopping centres , 4 lane roads with traffic lights , new estates & people , people , people !

    On the plus side , our beachfront has been beautified with boardwalks , BBQ areas , amenities etc ...

    Overall , it's still a nice place to live....

    Lol seriously, I wonder if I will ever be able to answer this question without feeling like I'm lying?

    I am from Seoul, South Korea...sort of, I'm 0% Korean but I've lived here for a bit over half a year and it's my, "physical" home. It's a huge city, beautiful, very mountainous, green, exciting, international and fine.

    I'm also from Kiev, (present day Ukraine) where I have my earliest childhood memories, where my father and mother lived, met, went to university, where my sisters and I were born...my half-sisters are half Ukrainian. It is also my culture and my language and where my heart is =)

    I'm also from Moscow, Russia & Canberra, Australia ... that's where I partially grew up. Moscow was big, red, expensive, fun. Canberra was spacey, natural, clean, fun.

    My mother is from Hanoi...her heart, her people & her home is there. I guess I could say it was one of my physical homes, I grew up there and had my first day of school there. Hanoi was, over-crowed, busy, fun, could of been worse.

    Other than Kiev, my birthplace, I have no where else to be "from" ... My years are quite equally divided, and I spent about the same amount of time in Ukraine, Russia, Vietnam & Australia & S.Korea too.

    My dad is from "Beissour" in Lebanon, east of Beirut... I know nothing about it but it's going to be one of my future homes definitely!!! He's also half Syrian...but don't get me started on that lol

    Yup, that's about all...but I've skipped a few places and I doubt you would want to hear anymore =P

    Source(s): I REALLY want to go home =( Don't know where, but I just want to be at home...

    I like in a very small town in Ontario, Canada. We always get plenty of tourists as it is a historic town with many things to do. Our downtown is one street with a few local shops, and a bank :P

    I love it because everyone knows each other :)

  • my mom's family are originially from baqa, its some village that got cut in half in 1948, my great grandpa's house was like one acre or a bit more far away from where they cut the village and took the eastern part

    then when they built the barrier they took 2 thousand more dunams of land, then they went to tulkarem after the 6 day war

    my dad's mom is from nablus my dad's dad is from tulkarem

    nablus

    Nablus is an ancient Canaanite town, has remains dating from c.2000 BC, the Samaritans made it their capital long ago, apparently there is the tomb of Joseph and the well of Jacob, oh and the romans named it Neapolis way long ago which is how it got its current name of Nablus

    Tulkarem

    Msakhan originated around Tulkarem

    Tulkarm was originally settled by the Canaanites in 3000 BCE.

    Home to an important Roman trading post

    After Arab conquest, received its current name "Tulkarm" which means "the bountiful mountain."

    derived from the Aramaic words "Toor Karma," meaning "mount of vineyards."
