Wow! So you were brought up very close to your culture then. Lucky! I'm a bit envious. The only strong European culture in at least one side of my family is German, and even then it's less German and more German-as-an-excuse-for-incredible-uptightness. I do plan on going to Slovakia and the Netherlands, France, Belgium and Germany someday. Just to get a feel for what the cultures are like. I really do wonder at what point a family looses what they brought over from their country of origin.
