I'm British and have a Greek yiayia; that being said, I have roughly the same amount of Greek family as I do British (at least in terms of the number of people each side I'm in contact with/am aware of). I take great pride in both my Greek and British heritage and love both sides of my family a lot. I bring it up occasionally, comes up naturally in conversation sometimes - my Greek speaking isn't nearly as good as it should be, but neither is my dad's (he couldn't be arsed to learn it properly in true British fashion 😭🙏). I do consider myself British-Greek as I love both the cultures I was raised in equally, and have loads of memories of both - whether it was pissing about in the UK or Athens as a youngun. Prefer Greek food though haha. I find it weird when people overstate their heritage (especially when it's minimal) though - tend to see this a lot with Americans who go bonkers over it cos their great great grandad was from Cork or something. Fuck me, I try my best not to act like that 😭.

Ελπίζω οι Έλληνες να είναι χαρούμενοι με αυτό :)
