I have dual citizenship.
I was born in Belgium. I went to school in England and in Switzerland, then I came to America, so I really feel like I am a citizen of the world.
I was born in the U.S. This is my country.
I consider myself to be a citizen of the world.

I'm not American. I still have my Japanese citizenship.
