Spanish or Portuguese, they seem laid back and cool as.

I'm Canadian with British/Irish roots so I've always been so damn white! 

 

I was going to say Spanish or Portugal, for some colour 

[Unabomber]

Danish or maybe German as I have blond hair and green/blue eyes

Just over two years and in Berlin at the moment. I've got my German up to the required level, taken all the integration courses and passed the test but even with marriage, I've got a few more years to wait until I can become a citizen. Unfortunately by that time, assuming Brexit actually happens, I'll have missed out on the possibility of dual citizenship. I'm not particularly sentimental about it but it would have been nice to have the option. 

Don't be surprised if DC,drags out awhile....

 

I would use any advantages,eitherway!!  B.passports are more expensive than German..if I decided I want one,for distant travels,I would ask for a German

Reisepass....For travel within  Europe  ,my ID-card is enough. My existing British pass,expires. June 2020.why should I bother with hassle!!!

 

I lived in Berlin before the fall of the Wall.  My first daughter was born there.But even before I was married,I had a great time there...Another life!!

Using the geographical location...if you like water,boats,canoes,cycling nature..Take time out on the  Mecklenburgischee Seenplatten..

Punjabi Pakistani's are quite cool people, lots of old school Punjabi mentality, shame the booze isn't available to make them bad ass punjabis

 

Why do all people think just cus I'm a Sikh I have something against pakistanis

wanting to be Scandi hopefully means you can tell the difference between being either (a) socially responsible or (b) over taxed...

 

either that that or you thought Borgen Was good or enjoy a good sauna...

Years back I'd have said Irish. My grandparents on my dad's side were Irish although I had nothing to do with them. But I loved visiting ireland they seem to have such a great outlook to life and everyone seems to like them.

 

However right now. Spanish all day long. Love the lifestyle, would love to speak the language (languages are not my thing) and if I ever can afford to. I'm.off to Ibiza to retire.

If I wasn't English I'd want to be Welsh though, just so I could sing that anthem.

 

If I ever work out which one of the loiterers you are in Criterion on a match day I'll teach you. 

 

 

To answer the question, I'm pretty sure I'm already actually Scandi.

Good question. Previously I’d always have said American but not now.

 

Probably Australian now. Love their laid back nature and confidence when it comes to sport

Ditto. If I had my time over I’d have gone to Aus straight after uni.

Kiwi is a great shout. Beautiful country, chilled out populace, decent sense of humour and you get to legitimately be an all blacks fan without glory supporting. 

 

Oh and do a ten thousand year old tribal war dance as a pastey white guy without anyone shouting cultural appropriation or white washing. 

[Guest MattP]

New Zealand is still the nicest place I've ever been, you really do feel you are cut off from the World though, I'm not sure I could live there.

[Great Boos Up]

German. I spent most of my childhood there.

Being Japanese would be ace:  Cute girls, great food, beautiful scenery, tentacle porn, their culture of respect, whacky technology, used undergarment vending machines.  What's not to love?

Thinking about it it West Indian is a good shout. They seem so laid back, as if Natural Mystic is wired into their heads and is on loop all the time.

Also the women are hot and the men all look like Mr Potato Head.

I've lived in England, Wales, Flagstaff Arizona, Auckland, Cape Town and Botswana. I'd love to be any one of the latter three - I suit a more laid back lifestyle anyway. Though it might be the sun and beer that has something to do with that.

 

Wherever I've been though I've always brought something back with me - expressions, inflexions, attitudes etc. I just wish we could be more laid back and less offended all the time in this country.

 

That said I'm also part Irish so a full Northern Irish accent comes naturally to me. Mother o Jesus.
