My name is Scotty. My mom is from the Philippines and my dad is white andfrom the United States. I love being from New England. My hobbies include Kirby, Moomin, and Snoopy. I love food and I also love eating. When you are mixed race you get to eat so many nice foods. In some ways I don’t like some Filipino foods because I don’t like vinegar but my mom essentially innovated a new hybrid cuisine to my sensitive flavor pallet with stuff in the United States. It is a micro cuisine for me and my brother. I love papa ginosFilipinos go all over and I have family all over the place. Some of my family live in Canada and some live in Australia. My mother was from the south Philippines and I am happy to tell you that I am TausugI love being from Massachusetts but it is also important to acknowledge that this land is part of a history that comes and includes the native people who were displaced. I want to acknowledge that and wrestle with that this is Massachusett Wampanoag land
