How many Nationalities?

New Zealander, Norwegian blood.

Family from Norway, North England and Australia & NZ.

Like everyone else I contain bits of Welsh/Irish.

Not sure if this is entirely the appropriate place but didnt want to open a new thread.

I'm watching Panorama, they're on about racism BBC1
Undercover - Hate on the Doorstep Jeremy Vine presents an investigation into racism based on the experiences of two undercover British Asian reporters who posed as husband and wife to live on a housing estate. During the eight weeks of their stay, they suffered more than 50 anti-social incidents, including being punched and pelted with glass and stones

South African :-)

Cornish

Its a new found country full of racist farmers (Of that i am not)
But I'm pretty dark
I might just need a wash though
Everyone thinks I'm eastern European

South African :-)

sud afrika.. best country i ever visited..

Man of Kent. Although i get accused of being an Aussie all the time, not sure if it's because i'm a cunt or just watched too much neighbours and home and away in my youth!

Hungarian (plus tiny mixture of Swabian and Jewish)

Everyone thinks I'm eastern European

Because you're dark? Interesting :-)

I'm not to sure, maybe i just look it.
or the fact i seem to speak a little Russian and/or German when I'm pissed

You probably look like a Gypsy. That's why :-) Pretend you're Italian - girls will love you.

"Eastern European" could mean almost any skin tone from translucent white Baltics to mocha Caucasians. White Russians use Кавказ (Caucasian) as a term of abuse for any darker skinned people, somewhat in the way that Paki is used by British racists, without too much regard to geographical accuracy.

Although you are officially right, ignorants in this country seem to think, that "Eastern European" (whatever it fucking means, as the term usually describes people from Central Europe - Poles, Lithuanians, Latvian, Czechs, Slovakians and Hungarians) equals Bosnian or Romanian Roma Gypsies. It's a Daily Mail remix.

Born and raised in Portugal, half the family has been in Brazil for over 50 years.
Left home to Barcelona when I was 23, London at 24... 1 more year and could have the british
passport, not really interested though(t). Still think a part of me grew to be a local... always
have the felling, when in Portugal, that I miss home.
Is that normal? Never though(t) 4 years could change so much the perspective of home.

Home is where the heart is.

I've never held a British passport even though I'm British born.

I prefer home is where the hatred is.

But the fact you´ve always had Portuguese ID card never made think different, still an EU citizen.
I met loads of people that struggled for years here just to get a Brit Passport. To the point, some of them, of forgetting/ignoring origins.
I could never do that, love to be here, feel perfectly adapted, actually, I now feel misplaced when back in Lisbon...
As long as I never have to meet Tynan I´ll be fine living in Londres.

Why are you scared of Tynan?

I used to go to Portugal often (Torres Vedras) every year or did until up to '06. I count it as my second home, as it's where I used to spend my summers.
My dad's been here since he was 15 and my mum since she was 22, neither of them can see themselves going back as they have build up roots here now, I'm guessing you're feeling the same. I'm just grateful for some of the portuguese culture here though, so I know where to go if I need some people yelling with their hands all the time! :D
