I tell people I'm British sometimes, other times I tell people I'm Somali.

I say I’m Somali. We ain’t like the Americans over here sxb. You can’t say you’re English if you’re not. Because you’re not. People rep their homeland all the time. Nigerian flags and all.

@Primordial is a weird case

Only a somali from Scandinavia would happily call himself a somalian.

What are you: Somali
Where are you from: my nationality

If I say I'm from Somalia, they I think I'm some refugee.

Thats probably why many somali brits tend to be closer to the somali culture than other diasporas

I'm not in the UK. Obviously I won't say I'm British in the UK, I'll just say I'm Somali.

When you're abroad, people will think you're a qaxooti if you say you're from Somalia, whereas you will get much better treatment in terms of jobs/opportunities in professional environments if you say you're British, and people will generally assume the best about you because most people in the world envy the West.

But, if I'm around my friends, I'll just say I'm Somali.

 

[Gedogyal]

I say im Somali but born in Sweden. Ppl in Sweden will think you're a fob if you say you're from Somalia lol
