Is there a country, other than your own, that holds a place in your heart?

  • Does she speak Welsh? (Not all do.) I once had a woman speak to me in Welsh for about five minutes. I didn't understand a word but it sounded like music.

    She just has the thick accent. I can only understand her in person, but never on the phone. Weird.

    There are two. My grandmother was born in St. John, New Brunswick, Canada. Her ancestors can be trace back that area until the late 1600's. They came from Scotland. So I would like to visit both and explore my roots.

    Canada.  My Mom's family lives there and with her passing, I feel like a part of me is there now.
