81. And a different language.
Our native tongue is Gaelic. needless to say, the language went through a significant period of time when it was dying out. It is due to recent interest that it is making a resurgence, dow to people like me and Mr. kt who are actively learning Gaelic as to pass it on to our little wee ones.

People like my parents kept many of the traditions alive through music and foods, sayings and a bit of the language, but it wasn't fluent. I love everything Celtic, as does Mr, kt, so we have strengthened our connection to our culture and where we came from.
