I am in scotland. One of the most beautiful place in world. But I would say this as a 'Conditions Applies - * Beauty' rather than 'beauty'. The Condition is 'You should be able to withstand and enjoy in COLD weather'. Scotland (UK in general) is good in summer which lasts only 3 months a year (maximum of 22 to 25 deg). Rest of the months are really cold and you find hard to go out and do anything. For a person who has lived in a warm weather, this place is definitely not enjoyable. The only thing that the person can enjoy is the money (pounds/dollars) which is very high in value than India.
Some people say, "people in usa/uk smiles and wishes whom so ever on their way. Even in office people behave intimately. But in India people doesnot know respect for other people". The simple answer is that the population is very less in usa/uk. Seeing a person is a rare event for them. But in india or china you cannot say this. There are maximum of 10,000 people in a town (uk/usa). But in India there are 10 times 10,000 (i.e. atleast 1 lakh) in a town. Just this is the difference.
Some people say, "The lifestyle is good in uk/usa. The environment and food are hygenic. Good education. Also no water problem like in India". I should accept this. But eating packed (junk) foods causes cancer which is irrevokable. But in India your children will play in dirt or in ditches (occasionally). The diseasses caused by dirt and ditches can be cured and it lasts for a maximum of one week. If we are careful enough, then we could completely prevent it. So decide cholera/diarrhoea/malaria/typhoid or Cancer.
Some people say, "This place is beautiful like Windows-wallpaper, greeting-card,etc. ". True... But how long you will watch this. That too it is too cold out. You cannot roam in streets freely with your casuals (lungi/shirt/chappal). If you get lost somewhere and without mobile or any contacting instruments you are lost.... No buses.. oops. even.. more... importantly...... no persons around to help you out..
I dont understand why people have craze on these COLD-DESERTS. Atleast for Indians, these countries could not provide the enjoyment that they had in their childhood (in india). If people say that they are enjoying in uk/usa, then simply it means -- "they fool others and themselves" or "they had bad time in India" or "they dont know what is enjoyment".
Hmm, Nowadays we get everything in India itself.. like.. perfumes, cars, bikes, dresses, electronics, etc. So nothing new left out. Once a trip to see these beautiful places (if money/time permits) is apprciable. Naaaa to live in these places...

you have been brought up in a certain environment which happens to be different than the one in which you live right now.
people speak, behave, think, act in different manner because of the culture differece. YOU are looking at THEM as a foreigner. not that this is wrong feeling but this feeling should not make u uncomfortable.
after all we all are products of you sorroundings. you happen to be born in theni village of thekdi district of tamilnadu which happens to be near kerala. it was by chance - no divine intervention saying arun shud be born in theni village of thekdi district of tamilnadu which happens to be near kerala. you are used to certain things man...
so many things are levied upon us by chance - the place we r born, the language we speak, the customs we inherit are all - by chance and there is this godforsaken obligation to have a fierce pride about these "by-chance" inherited things..
shed off some pride and enjoy the difference. dont be a foreigner and not judging and start observing!
