I love your close observation on this and other posts. As half and half (fluent in both languages, Mediterranean colouring, but then also hot pink hair and tattoos), this fitting in business has been the story of my life. Too foreign to ever fit in in the U.K., too odd to fit in properly in Greece. I do see you, but I do also use the “oh she’s foreign so it’s ok” card all the time! I’m very much enjoying your writing.

You are such an inspiration my friend!! I love to read your Friday substacks!!
I'm glad you're here! Thanks for your support.
Reading this at 6:21 AM as soon as it was published. Great writing my friend. Part Two was like a poem.
Thank you for the lovely comment!
