I wished he would say I was pretty or beautiful, but no, it was always exotic. I read an article last year that said not to tell people they look exotic because it makes their appearance about their ethnicity. I agree. I'm not exotic. I'm a Norwegian with a German last name. Perhaps I'll get a DNA test one of these days to confirm the Sami theory.Janie Junebughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10573607241326291404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629102377276886689.post-40178034462931142822016-02-13T16:18:29.982-05:002016-02-13T16:18:29.982-05:00I really haven't researched the facts.
