Well, I've been to more than 50 countries, have served in the US Navy & US Coast Guard, did a tour in the Middle East, did a tour in Guam, my mother is from France (and I still have aunts, uncles, a grandmother, and cousins that live in France & Europe), my best buddy from HS & college is from Costa Rica (he's white and his name is Maurice), last winter I snowboarded in 5 countries in 5 days in the Alps, I've been to Cuba (which 99% of Americans that aren't Cuban haven't been to)....should I go on?
Again, I love this country and there are plenty of great places to live here in this country. GREAT PLACES!
