One of my best friends is Dutch. Or rather, he is first generation American. I adore him and see in him the description of your Dutchness here. thank the stars for your blended self, for our blended selves, for blending across the globe.

I saw a video recently of a guy going off about how awesome it is that this tiny number of us (as compared to the massive number of humans who have called this traveling ball home and who will) sharing this planet at this moment— like we are each each other’s cohort, and how cool is that. I’m really digging that perspective. Thank you for sharing yours, Dami!

Your "blended self" is completely American in all possible ways. Stay blended. America can learn a lot from other countires and cultures, if it will allow it.

I like that: a blended self is completely American. Thanks for that! Maybe I can stop thinking of myself as an outsider.
