Overheard in Brussels

I was walking into town with Miguel yesterday, and as we walked by an Italian restaurant we heard: "Guarda la questa bianca bianca!" (Look at that extremely white girl!) I didn't think much of it, until I turned around and saw that they were pointing at me! I know I'm pale, but I didn't know I was that pale! *sigh*

  1. Makes you wonder, this being said in Brussels, where they must have their share of "pale" people! I used to be called pale too, when I lived in Africa;) Little kids would yell it at me as I walked down the road.
