Do you class yourself as "European"?
Wherever you're from, what nationality do you class yourself as? And do you even think of yourself as being European? I think of Europe as being Italy, Spain, France, etc...

My background consists mostly of European, then I've got a bit of middle east and canadian. For a majority I'm German, Jewish, Norweigen, French, Irish and Canadian. I've got just a mere trace of Native American, but for the most part my background is European.

Well, I tend to look at all countries below Denmark as Europe(also GB )

The sofisticated ones all belong to Scandinavia :P

I kinda class myself as European even though I was born in Australia. My parents are Slovenijan and Croatian.
Since Australia is hugely made up of Europeans, if your parents were born in there, you usually consider yourself European too.

I am rather dutch, though my mom was born in venezuela and had a venezuelian passport for a while, her parents were both dutch, my father and his parents were born and raised in holland. my last name refers to a dutch city so, yeah I couldnt be much more dutch.
but do I class myself europian?
well... first of all I class myself as christian, thus "in this world but not from this world"
but if dont take that into concideration then, yeah, I could class myself europian.

I'm Austrian
alright, well I would say that I'm Austrian rather than I'm European. cause I was born in Austria and have been living here my whole life. but if I was talking to some Americans, I would probably mention that I'm from "Austria IN Europe" because a lot of people (especially a lot of Americans that I've met) mistake Austria with Australia lol

lol I've been in Austria once (twice actually maybe, cant recall)
we call it "Oostenrijk" so thats a lot different from "Australiė" or Australia.

to be honest, I have no clue.
we were on vacation in the Czech Republic close to the Austrian borders, and we took a walk and went into Austria.
and a second time we've been there to watch the eclips of the sun, which we missed out on because of the clouds by the way.
that was also when we were on vacation in Czech, but another time.

oh, and yes I live in the Netherlands.
