Valid address and ip for testing taxes
Clear and concise description of the problem
Faker works great when you're trying to generate random address and ip locations, but the generated addresses are not good when you want to test valid locations for tax calculation.
Suggested solution
Add a new method that would return a random address and ip card that would be valid for tax validation.

Team decision
We won't add a database with real world data.
