Well, which one should I chosse?... for Southeast Asia.
Probably, East Asia. Thailand, to me, is more eastern than southern.
by the way, you should have Oceania instead of Australia because it will include Australia and nearby countries like New Zealand, and Fiji.

All countries on the Asia-Pacific rim is Asia/East.
Asia/South starts from Bangladesh westward.
Yes my bad, I should've written Oceania there :/ ... however technically Oceania is not a continent or subcontinent
Edit: Typo
Eurasia. Just on limits of Asia with Europe.

... Russia and all countries west of the Caucasus Mountains can be safely called Europe.
It's Turkey that I'm not so sure...

Well. I wouldn't say that. There are some provinces and halfly depended republics where the language is totally diferent from Russian ( mostly turkic dialects and of course Muslim religion). Crazy mix of turk(mongolian) and slovenian tribes. It's not Europe neither Asia. It's Eurasia.

Yay I found a one from Czech

I have some sentences in Czech on my label and want them to be translated in English.
I'm from Europe, the
Netherlands, sometimes called Holland.
Europe - Britain / Hungary.
If you need some Hungarian translation I might be able to help :-)

I always thought that Eurasia is (Europe || Asia)[union] not (Europe && Asia)[intersection]

As for me, I'm from Ukraine, Europe.

No spice here. I'm not living in the city centre, but the our city centre is showing the sad truth of 70/80s concrete jungle style of architecture. But there's a solution for the city: pull down all buildings and rebuild

I'm from Adelaide, South Australia but will be moving to Buxton, England next week!
Edit: After seeing some users post links to info on their cities I thought I'd do the same.
Adelaide, where I was born and raised, is a lovely city and I'll miss it very much. If you're ever in Australia I strongly suggest you visit.
Buxton, my future home, is a wonderful almost rural town. I look forward to spending quite a few years there.
