A few years ago I surprised a colleague from the US with an apparently trivial question, “Where are you from?†She looked at me, “What do you mean?†she asked. “Where was I born? Where did I go to school? Where do my parents live? Where do I live now? Where do I feel like I belong? Where would I like to belong?†The string of answers she gave me made a net all over the globe, because her father was a diplomat who had passed through half the world’s embassies.
