Hi Jonna -
Haven't studied for the citizenship test yet - keep meaning to get to it, because I have only been here 30 odd years. Still a South African citizen. Only advantage is that, while I do not get to vote, I do not have to do jury duty either.
Maps have always been of interest to me - so by the 7th grade, if you mentionad a country, I could tell you where it was, which countries surrounded it, what it's flag looked like, capital city and chief export. Was a bit of a nerd that way. I can still pour over an atlas for hours though - probably what let me to a life of travel.
Cheers,
Mike
