    Born and raised in Rotterdam, the Netherlands!

    Edit: dus naast Engels spreek ik ook Nederlands! ^^

    Great! Ik spreek ook Nederlands. Nederlands Nationaliteit, geboren op Bonaire. Ik was in Nederland in 1990 voor een maand. Mijn zus woont daar. Maar ik heb geen praktijk meer over de laatste 20 jaren of zo, dus is mijn Nederlands echt slecht geworden. Wat een schaamte.

    Je Nederlands is helemaal niet slecht! Erg goed juist :)

    Translation (before people start yelling at me that this is an American/English site): She told me she can speak dutch also, that her sister lives there but that her Dutch has declined because she hasn't been there for 20 years or so. I told her her Dutch is actually really good!

    Dunmore, PA, right next to Scranton. I never ran into Joe Biden, though everybody knew the Casey's. Lot's of tasty cakes, hoagies, and pierogi, not to mention white pizza, porketta, french fries with gravy, and 24 hour diners. Hard to maintain there, even now when I just go back to visit.

    My maided name was DUNSMORE. I read this and had to re-read because I thought there was a town named after my family!!! :-)

    The town was named after Lord Dunmore, who fought a famous but largely futile war with the native Americans, Lord Dunmore's war, in the early 18th century. Could be you are part of that brood, spelling was more interpretive back in those days.
