USA mutt. My dead beat father moved here from Iran in the late 60s, and my mom was first generation American from an Irish Catholic mother and Eastern Block father. I'm a little bit of everything and not enough of anything.

White (Irish/Dutch), and First Nations (Ojibwe)

all my great grandparents came over from the Netherlands or Ireland, except one great grandma, she's First Nations.

I'm pretty pale with lots of freckles and dark hair and very dark eyes and high cheekbones. I'm not very in touch with my First Nations part of my family unfortunately they live across the country basically
