The version I've heard is a man born in St. Petersburg, got his degree in Leningrad, and now lives in Petrograd. Then when asked where he'd like to live, he answers "St. Petersburg".
That version has the "and where would you like to live" punchline, but this version has the nice "multiple countries" feature. So I guess there's advantages for both?
