On my mother's side, my family is Russian and Ukrainian. My great grandmother was born in Moscow, whereas my great grandfather grew up in rural Ukraine, before moving to Kiyv and then eventually emigrating to Canada. My grandmother grew up speaking Russian as a first language and used to teach me certain Eastern Orthodox prayers in the language when I was young. Her husband, my grandfather, is Russian, Welsh, and English. I attribute my somewhat stubborn, rather loud personality to my Russian heritage. (My grandmother is very Russian, and she's the same way. Although, she's genuinely the loveliest woman.)
On my father's side, I have ancestry from all over Europe. My Grandmother is German, Austrian, Swedish, Norwegian, and Danish, with her grandparents being both born in Austria. (I attribute my natural pale blonde hair to my Northern Europe roots). My grandfather is Irish and English, his family originated in a place called Kilkenny, Ireland.Almost everyone on my dad's side has blue eyes, including myself. (Which is saying a lot because my family is very large, grandparents are devout Catholics who had 8 children, aha.)
