I don't know why but I only face problems if I live there.
I wonder why do I have to face only problems if I live there.
例えば、
アメリカに住んでいると次々の問題と直面しますー
'If I live in the states, I only face problems there.'
'I don't know what's wrong with the place, but whenever I am in the states I face problems.'
'I guess America is not a very lucky place for me to live in , as I always get troubles whenever or wherever I am here.'
以上は個人的に使う表現になりますが、どうぞご参考までに。
