I was advised to make sure I tell my parents on my wedding day. I did and they both actually gave me a hug. Since then it has become an easy "refrain" for us, which is something I am very thankful for.budayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17150416159606761120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4025369007002849768.post-73532217756946596972010-07-12T11:25:03.609+02:002010-07-12T11:25:03.609+02:00Sure it depends on the family and circumstances, y...Sure it depends on the family and circumstances, you're right. <br />I am 50% Catalan too, two of my grandparents were originally from Tarragona and my father was born there too and taken to Argentina when we was just 3 years old. Then I have a Basque grandma from Irún and an Italian grandpa from Bologna, Italy. So, typical Argentinean stock! :o)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06923613028048879472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4025369007002849768.post-72387398096665427212010-07-11T18:38:13.060+02:002010-07-11T18:38:13.060+02:00You could be right there.

Southern Europeans are a bit different, I tell you. Latin Americans too, I think. I lived with my parents until I was 24 and then came back to them at 32 and left them only when I got married.
