Wow where do you live?
- wnight 15y agoCanada. Not me though. Sorry. There's a guy in here from India who lived roughly where his family always has. To me, never having seen anything older than Montreal, that's just inconceivable. Can a hundred generations of children really grow up playing in the same places? Don't places get experienced out? There's always a distance between me and the stories my ancestors tell because they were in different places, doing different things. The idea of your great-grandfather playing in the same barn you did as a kid, going to the same school... It's weird to contemplate.
- arethuza 15y agoDepends what you are used to - as I mentioned above my family had been living in the same small village for about 400 years or so - which by European standards isn't that odd. Some people can trace their families back much further than that (well over a thousand years).
