How did your parents meet?
My dad came to the U.S. with his family at a young age, as did my mom. They actually went to school together but didn’t really talk or pursue each other until MUCH later.
Were they in the same grade?
Mom was a year older
Are you multilingual?
да! (I’d say so. Despite Russian being my first language, I’m better at English. I’m also learning Arabic)
How many places have you lived in?
Lived in Russia (Moscow) until age 9, then lived here in the U.S.!
Which nation's accent do you have?
Used to be Russian, but since I’ve lived in the US for over 10 years (I’m 22 and moved at around 9-19), my accent is kind of a mix of English (possibly from being European) and American
Did any of your family members keep their accent?
