About This Quiz

Each city has its own unique set of characteristics and cultures, so naturally certain places align better with certain personalities. We're going to save you a lot of time and money by matching you up with your ideal city without you having to go through all the trial and error of testing the world's many destinations.

Perhaps you're the kind of person who is drawn to peace and quiet. Perhaps your political persuasions are an important factor in determining which city or country you'd like to visit, or even call home.

Maybe you'd be more comfortable adopting a bohemian lifestyle, creating artwork and exploring the depths of the human experience. If money and social stature mean nothing to you, and you'd much rather march to the beat of your own drum, then we've got a European city that would be a perfect fit.

Whether you like to party all night long or live in a cottage far removed for the busy city life, we've got you covered. Get your passport ready; we're about to travel the globe in search of your true home.
