The question "where are you from?" always bugs me
it is a quesion I often ask people, regardless of their skin tone,. It
fascinates me. I think because when I am asked the question, I have no idea
how to answer. When one has lived in 5 different countries, and 30 some
houses, where on earth do you decide you come from? In some ways that is bad
but in others it is good-I don't have an idea about my cuklture(whatever
that is) that makes me feel it is superior to others, i have no
nationalistic or patriotic feelings. I am perpetually the 'foreignor' which
has its good points and bad points.
