[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where are you from is different from where were you born/hometown. When I’m asked that while on vacation or sitting in a cab on a business trip, I say, “I’m from DC” (where I live). If I’m asked in a setting where we’re having a longer conversation/getting to know each other, I say, “I grew up in X, and I’ve been living in DC for 20 years.” Nonetheless, I know what you’re saying, OP. And, New Yorkers are the worst. We were on vacation with friends from college, and the cab driver asked us where we were from. A pal said he was from NY, and another pal said, “Whatever, Dave. You just moved to NY and you’ve been there for like 5 minutes. You aren’t a New Yorker yet.”[/quote] This is a different question though altogether. When you are a tourist in another country, they want to know where you are traveling from. Not where you grew up. [/quote]
