Citizen of the World

"I am not an Athenian or a Greek, but a citizen of the world" - Socrates. Irish and Scottish instrumental music is one of my favorite. I have a weakness for oriental cuisines. I am a fan of Greek and Hindu mythologies. Most of my neighbors are Arabic. The library I attend belongs to a Native American. I am an African who speaks English language. Different cultures and races color my life! I am a citizen of the world.
