being in a relationship with a partner who’s different nationality

Definitely a challenge sometimes, but mostly exciting

(I'm American, with one American parent, one English; he was born in London to Indian parents.)

There are definitely cultural differences between us, but mainly they are fascinating. I've learned a bit of Bengali, his family's language and gone to a Dwali celebration with him and I've introduced him to my Americanisms and food I've brought from home.

We learn from each other, and London is our common ground, a connection between the American and Indian sides of us.
