Is interesting however to see how our own cultures impact the way we perceive love and dating particularly. I think we should never segregate ourselves based on race, religion, nationality, culture nor any media, family or peer influenced limitations other than choosing the person that genuinely makes us happy. Now the reality is as the world is becoming increasingly borderless intercultural, inter-racial couples are on the way of becoming the norm and that is in my opinion a great thing.

So here I was a 21 year old Eastern European meeting my Ethiopian boyfriend’s family….with no previous clue of what that experience would be like. Of course ever since, life ‘s main lesson for me was “never say never” and the first man I truly fell in love with was from literally across the world not just a different country but a different continent and a completely different ethnic group.
