what are your parents’ cultures and in what ways do / did their cultures complement each other or otherwise clash? i studied anthropology back in the day, and this question is so interesting to me !! for e.g. mine are japanese and english and i think the japanese love of reading and the way the they tend to romanticise england, esp from literature (think beatrix potter, agatha christie) definitely helped my mum survive years of bad weather in the english countryside with no friends :’)
