Where do you come from? Very often it is the first question we ask when we meet someone. It is also the first information I was encouraged to provide in this article. Alright. I grew up in a small town by the Mediterranean Sea called Alboraia, 300 km south from Barcelona. Now your mind is trying to find out what would be the “right” answer: “That’s Spain, right? So you are European”. Does that question really matter? Do the other Top 10 questions, such as ‘what is your job?’ matter either?
