And where do you live now?

I was born in South Korea. I came to US when I was 5 months old and raised in Vermont!

    My brother, who was adopted, was born in Georgia but adopted and raised in Connecticut.

    I was born in Florida...but moved around a LOT because my father was military.

    I was born in Akron, OH and raised in a suburb of Akron and Cleveland. My birth parents later moved around and landed outside Dallas, TX because my birth father was in the military. A few years ago they moved to Hawaii!! I'm in regular contact with them - they found me when I was 19 years old. I'm looking forward to a visit in Hawaii someday!!

    My son was born in Cleveland, OH and is being raised by his adoptive parents there. I moved to Cincinnati, OH several years ago for a job opportunity, but we're still very close to him and his family.
