Well, I have two countries, I would say.
The one I'm coming from and the one where I live in.
The first is the country of paradox, a country that everybody loves and hates at the same time. For example, last year, this country had the world record for the number of burned cars in its streets and at the same time was the most visited for tourism purpose. It seems that I'm a compatriot of Galvano.
My other country, where I've been living in for nearly 15 years now, has no unions strikes, the stores are always open, even during the night or the week ends. In this island, the people are the nicest in the world but there are also daily earthquakes (we only feel the biggest tremors every two or three months). Another particularity : it is also a country that is still living under the threats of a thousand missiles pointed at it by a very big and "friendly" neighbour. Should I say it is Taiwan?
