Few people know that I grew up in Germany and that my family still lives there.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I grew up in the time of Germany after the war.
My friends often tell me how very German I still am.
My family history, like that of many Polish, German and Jewish families from Central Europe in the 20th century, is complex.
I've lived for 10 years in Switzerland, so I speak German.
I do not deny my German identity. But I also feel Swiss. Of my eight great-grandparents, seven were born Swiss. I have been living in Switzerland for more than 50 years.
I've always traveled, as a kid my parents moved me around, a different place in Germany every four years. But I got the travel bug when I was a kid, living in different countries.
Germany's amongst my top three places in the world I'd like to live.
We left Germany when I was 11.
My family is from Russia and Poland. We never had that thing with the German Jews.
The German public knows me quite well. I have been in their kitchens and living rooms for years.
