We were taking our pack walk the other day and a van full of tourists went by.
Ella: "There's a bunch of people like you!"
Me: "Wow, those are a lot of tourists!"
Ella: "Oh. Are you a tourist?"
Ha ha! Might have to introduce the word "Caucasian" or the kids will get really confused when we're the tourists in Canada next year! We've still to find an appropriate word to describe a half Ugandan, half CAUCASIAN/Tourist person - so far all we've come up with is "like James" whose our little half and half friend :)
We've also started "judging" people by their accents, too, to figure out their nationality :) That's actually pretty fun! We focus more on nationality than race. And if we're stumped, all black people are Ugandans and all white people are tourists :)
What you'd call a person like this I'm really not sure! Flower Child perhaps?

Being danish, having just moved to kampala with my husband and our son, we struggle getting to know the country and entertain our two-year-old, Jonathan.
