So what is your story man?
Mine is this:
Mom=Swedish
Dad=Washington D.C./ Jewish
Both were on vacation in Italy when they met (what are the odds). I am a dual citizen. I lived in Sweden for a year when I was 2, and two years when I was 14 years old in Avesta (Dalarna). Other than that I have lived in the Washington D.C. area and now Seattle. However I have visited Sweden at length almost every summer since I was young. This year will be the first 4th of July I have seen in over a decade!!!
So what is your deal man? | Dad = 100% Swedish
Mom = Irish
My grandfather (dad's father) was a Lutheran Minister in Massachusetts, Maine, and Connecticut. That side of the family are all Swedish Lutherans, as my ancestors immigrated to New Sweden, Maine on ships. . . My great-great grandfather started Gustav Adolph church in New Sweden Maine, and my great grandfather was once the First Selectman of that town. . .
Anyway, my roots go back pretty far. . .   Be still, and know that Dog I am.
