Culture / Ethnicity

[Golden_Rhino]

As of late I have been trying to learn more about my ethnicity and culture. I was born in Argentina to an Italian father and German mother. I find that in my daily life German culture has had no influence on me, but the Italian and Argentine cultures affect me greatly. Most of my friends are Italian as well as the food I usually eat. I speak Spanish with my family, and I identify myself as an Argentine, even though I came to Canada when I was three years old.

I am curious about the ethnicity of the forum.

- What is your ethnic / cultural background?

- How big a role does it play in your life?

- How far removed are you from the immigrant generation of your family? (in the end we are all immigrants, except for the Natives)

- Do you maintain any traditions from the "old country"?
