Philadelphia, PA, US of A, please.

List all known ancestral nationalities
British, Circassian & gypsy on mom's side, Laz & Georgian on dad's side.

Do you feel a sense of national pride for your ancestral roots?
Not really.

Is your family interested in your heritage?

Deutsch.

How many languages did you learn while growing up?
Two, but My Deutsch sucks.

What languages were/are/will be offered at your high school?
English, French, German.

Which one(s) did you/are you/will be taking?
I wanna learn Spanish, actually.

On a scale from 1-10, how much does the realm of linguistics interest you?

At the top of your head, what language do you think is probably the easiest to learn?
Spanish, I hope.

A lot of things are wrong with our culture in general: things you HAVE TO have, size 0, smoking bans...

Pfft, please! I always do. And I don't mind subtitles.

What aspect of the world that we live in do you hate the most?
Hatred.

What aspect of the world that we live in do you love the most?
The places I'm willing to explore, and all those unique people I've come across and love so much: you know who you are.
