I speak Spanish, I have a fairly basic level of fluency but don’t live there. People understand me and I can hold conversations but they call me gringo and they are not “nice” or welcoming about it.

I have very little attachments to where I’m from so that was the last straw for me. I don’t identify culturally with where I’m from anymore.
