Do you live in your nation of origin?

Postby Englia (Ancient) » Mon Apr 23, 2012 2:17 pm

Simple: do you live in the country you were born in?

I was born in Canada, but have lived in the US since 2009. I briefly lived with family in suburban London (December 2000-July 2001).

I was born in an occupied territory, so no country. I still live there, but it's part of a country now.

Yes.

Lived in the same house for all of my 15 years too, save one year where we moved out while it was extended.

No.
I was born in South Africa and I'm in Israel. I plan on leaving soon.
My ancestry is even more complex (8 countries by going back only two generations)

I just call myself human. Fuck nations and fuck borders.

Yup - born in Scotland, raised in Scotland, live in Scotland, work in Scotland.
Please note: Central Lothian is the direct successor to Mid Lothian*. As a result, I am still called Rebecca, I am still a Grammar Nazi and most information pertaining to ML also applies to CL (although I will be taking this time to change a few things).

* - And I may refer to the country as Mid Lothian. If I do, assume that I mean Central Lothian. (And not to be confused with "Midlothian" - I'm using that as a fascist version of CL.)

I still live in my country of origin. Though I have moved to different parts of it in the last few years. It's time to pack up and leave it though. But where to go, and any incentives? :D
