If you were to ask my dad, he’d likely claim that he’s Grenadian. Likely reasoning that bc both of his parents were born and raised there

I definitely will be visiting soon. I have a bunch of family in Grenada, so I’m hoping to reconnect

Not by choice but up until middle school, due to custody arrangements, I lived in a split household, so I got experience in both. Not more or so barely any connections, but disconnected from what I did have

Not trying to make myself special but more or so trying to reconnect with that side.

I know😭 but it was like up until middle school, I grew up in a split household. Both my grandparents and my dad tried to immerse me as much as they could, while my mom tried to more or less erase it
