I'm french-canadian too. I travel a lot but I make it a point to remain low key and not talk about myself. When I visit a place, I don't want to start yapping about home like so many ugly tourists do. People may ask me where I'm from but I quickly change the subject so I never got to ask them where they thought I was from.
Although, at home, a lot of people think I'm italian or even arabic because I can get pretty olive-dark in he summer.

People tend to think I am Irish at first because I have red hair and pale skin, then when I open my mouth they mistake me for English or bizarely sometimes as new Zealander or South African ( as they can't really place my English).

You have been confused for Filipino as well as Italian. I don't believe that because Italians and Filipinos show zero resemblance to each other. Who the heck would confuse Silvio Berlusconi for being part of the same race as Manny Pacquiao. |

Well Australia does not have as many coloured people as the USA, however the Aboriginal population here is close to 3% of the poplation. However there is an increase in immigrants from places such as Sudan, Somolia and places like that, as well as from India.
Whereas just a few years ago you could go days & hardly see a black person , now you will come across them daily in all capital cities and the smaller cities. |
