Would you rather live in Spain or Japan?

[TDAS04]

Well?

[President Johnson]

Spain. Better climate and food and relaxed people.

[SATW]

Japan, easily.

[RaphaelDLG]

Spain, only because the current culture seems more healthy and compatible with my western upbringing.  Tokyo is incredible, Zen is incredible, Japanese industry is impressive, the history is really cool - would like to visit.

[Xing]

I'd want to visit both first, but since I lived in a country quite close to Japan, I'll say Japan for now.

[anvi]

I have never visited Spain, so I can't fairly say.  I loved almost everything about living in Japan though, and would be very happy to live there again.

[Santander]

I've been to Japan much more than I've been to Spain, and it makes me prefer Spain even more.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Nothing against Japan, but I prefer to remain in Europe, so Spain, even though it's too hot (I mean I like hot, but not all year long).

[100% pro-life no matter what]

Spain- They have really nice weather and good food.  But, most importantly, I speak Spanish, but not Japanese.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Japan.

[DINGO Joe]

The food was incredibly difficult to navigate in Japan.  It was interesting to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.  Spain would be acceptable in every way.

Only poster who was grumbling about the climate/weather is Polish. How surprising. Nevertheless I wanted to write the same - vote for Spain, although northern part because not that hot (maybe Basque country for some alien language and Carlist echoes of the past).

[YaBoyNY]

Spain. Culture shock would be less severe.

[dax00]

Japan. I hate Japan more than I hate Spain, but I like Japan a lot more than I like Spain. My sense of style would be less under attack in Japan. Also, Japan has better food.

[politicallefty]

Definitely Japan. It's at least among the top 3 countries I'd most like to live in around the world. I love the culture, the food, and I'd like to be forced to finally make a very serious effort to learn the language. To be honest, Japan is one of the counties I'd most like to live in, period.

[DavidB.]

Spain for sure, one of the best countries in the world to live in (if you have a job). East Asia fascinates me, but it's not for me.

[Tender Branson]

Spain (normal).

[RFayette]

No you're not

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Spain and it's not close.

I love when it's warm... just not the entire year.

Is there any other language that resembles Basque?

Maybe Klingon?

[DINGO Joe]

No, though the theory that a pre Indo-European language in Europe from which Basque derived did influence Indo-European languages, particularly the Romance ones, as they developed in Europe, is plausible.  

[Figueira]

Either would be great. I'll say Japan because that would give me an excuse to learn Japanese (which I think is a really nice-sounding language for some reason). I already speak some Spanish.
