Did one of those DNA tings months back on a whim.
Has anyone here done them? With the map and percentages, it appeals to my brain. I love stuff like this.
My dad's from Lancashire. I thought with my nan being Irish, that I'd be 25%. Scottish though? No word of a lie, when I visited the Highlands, it felt like I belonged. I've repeatedly said I want to move there, and visualise it strongly. I feel very wistful when I ponder Scotland. It's also the place I visualised in my mind during yoga wind down breathing exercises, and during my EMDR sessions too.
I'd hoped for a random, small percentage ethnicity. Jesus Christ though, could I be any more white. According to science, only if I were albino.
Undeniably Celtic though.
To me this helps explain why foreign travel never clicked with me either. I'd rapidly get homesick, miss our family pets that were in the kennel and desperately wanting to go home. When Boxanne is done, I know it would take several lifetimes just to get to see all of the UK - and it's where I call home.
