The Jew and the German

Quick side story, as many of you know wherever we go Stephanie gets mistaken for a million different nationalities: Chilean, Peruvian, even Pakistani once, whatever. she gets them all. But in particular she gets, ¨so are you Jewish?¨which always pisses me off bec. i feel like i could be so why doesn´t anyone ask me?? ug.. haha anyways, it´s an ongoing joke with the two of us and this trip has been no exception with everyone asking her if she´s Jewish. So of course the only other nationality I ever get mistaken for, other than American, is German, which just isn´t as cool as being mistaken for an Argentine or Chilean. So when when we werein the convent in Arequipa, Peru my point was proven when this little German boy kept running up to me blabbering in German and giggling.
damn. always German. one day I´ll get mistaken for something coool, or even better they´ll ask me if i´m Jewish.
ok ok probably not, but a girl can hope.
