    Where there is love and respect, there are no differences, save for the oppressive and backward laws that still exist in some countries.

    They're not interchangeable. 'Nonsense' is used to describe something that is illogical or wrong, and 'gobbledygook' is used to describe something that is difficult to understand because it's very complicated. I've never used or heard the latter (I've seen it written, though) but I say and hear 'nonsense' very often.

    ”Where I lived" is the place you resided. Toronto is where I lived [when I was a child] but now I live in London. Where I lived was a small town and everybody knew each other. "What I lived for" is what made you happy, what you did or thought about all the time. I live for playing the piano. I practise every day. Good parents live for their children. I hope that's not too bad of an explanation!

    Your last example is incorrect because the verb 'aller' requires an indirect complement (unless used in the imperative mode). You can either say: Es-tu prêt à partir? or Es-tu prêt à y aller? (Are you ready to go [there].) Note that 'y' doesn't have to be a specific place if your intended meaning is to leave from a place where you're done whatever it was that you were doing. For example: 'On y va?' or 'Allons-y' mean 'Shall we go?' and 'Let's go' respectively but doesn't necessarily indicate a specific location to go to. Hope that helps. P.S. My dialect is Canadian French.
