I'm half Puerto Rican and half Jewish and so, in some ways, living in many worlds at once is where I feel most at home.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm half Puerto Rican.
My father's Jewish, so my world is Jewish whenever I go home.
I always felt I was living in two worlds. One was the Mexican world, because nearly everybody I knew, relatives and cousins and kids in the neighbourhood, were Mexican. Then school was a different world. It was ethnically mixed.
I have always felt more at home in a culture that has nothing to do with the one I was born and brought up in.
I guess I just tend to feel at home wherever I go.
I choose to be American, I choose to live in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, I choose to have Puerto Rican/Jewish neighbors, and I choose to maintain my Chinese identity.
I had such a great upbringing in Puerto Rico, and it was just a very normal life.
I love being a gypsy. Home is between New York and California.
I feel at home in a lot of places, but I am truly an African-American.
My heart is half Puerto Rican, half Canadian. That is how I feel.
