That is, ethnic background. My father is Indian, born in India, living in India and Africa as a child before going to boarding school in England. Despite the obvious appearance being a bit of a give away, a perfect English accent could make you think otherwise on the telephone.
My mum is Polish. She has lived here all her life, but her parents came here after the war. Her first language, like my Dad, is her native tongue, but too speaks with a perfect English background.
I feel very privileged to have such a diverse ethnic background. It makes me feel special, cultured and valuable. More valuable anyway. A lot of my friends who's families have been based in and around my home town for what seems like eternity are a little jealous at my mixed history.
So what is your ethnic background? I don't want to get in to a discussion of which race is better, but am only interested as to see the spread of cultures throughout the forum. And out of curiosity as to whether there is another Polindian out there
