I was born in England, Britain but descended from Mauritian parents.

haha, a bit like me.
I was born and brought up in Kenya, but my parents are Indian. I've been in the UK since I was 14. So when someone asks me "where are you from?", I often have to ask them what they mean exactly.

Born/raised in the far east, to U.S. parents. Moved to states when i was 17. Travelled the globe and finally settled down in the US ten years ago.

Born and raised in America - Pacific Northwest to be more exact but living in the UK for the last several years due to my marriage to a Brit. Mom's parents came from Germany though.

Moving back to the US in a month, exactly!

Why isn't Texas given continental status?

So once again I'm left with the classic Irish man's dilemma, do I eat the potato or do I let it ferment so I can drink it later?

I've edited the poll options to make them clearer a bit. I live in Canada, though I grew up in Pakistan and the U.S.
