I got asked by a lot of Thai people- where are you from?
I said Los Angeles.
But you look Chinese, well yes, I am of Chinese descent and also I was born in Germany.
It got a little annoying- then I thought well there’s white people who were born in Asia too, but it’s a little bit rare.
Then I thought wait a minute all these Caucasians are lounging in Southeast Asia and they are treated like gods because they will pay for the mohjitos, the monkey blowjobs, the ping pong shows…
But how about non- Caucasians in caucasian countries? They’re not called expats, they’re immigrants or refugees who are “taking advantage of the system”.
Hmmmm.
Interesting thought.
