Wel i live in northern Norway, north of the polar cricle. The landscapes have had yellow, brown and red collors for over a month now and today the first snow came in the tallest mountains.
It is not long now before have to put on winter tiers.
Maby i shuld take up one of the axes outside and head up in the mountains to find myself a Dragon =P

England... we have [censored] weather! :D


Born in England, recently moved to Wales, thought the weather couldn't get any worse.....I was wrong.


But at least I can see mountains from outside my window, sadly no snow though.

Are all of those parts of Europe even necessary? What is "Northern Europe" if Scandinavia is off and Britain/Ireland/Iceland are NW Europe?

We have mountains, but unless you're actually in them romping around, you're in the desert.

I grew up here: http://www.pashnit.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=101769&d=1254704313 with Pine Valley Mountain in the distance: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_JpEWXOITrzw/S5WBWuQTs7I/AAAAAAAAJV4/RoX4H7Y1cuQ/IMG_1138.JPG

Now I live more northwards (Salt Lake City), where the mountains are quite grand, but unfortunately the ugly city covers the entire area in front of them:

At least it's not too long a drive to get out into the wild. :)

well its not skyrimish here...

we have no mountains, every directions but due north i hit a beach, yesterday it was in the mid to low 90's today though i think it only hit 85... there arent even really hills here but we call a small change in elevation a "hill" here...

i can give easier clues...

I'm from France. Since it's neither south western Europe, north western Europe nor central Europe (despite having part of the alps), I don't really know what to check xD

Most of my life in Germany, now in Florida in the US. Not very Skyrim-ish here.
