👏🙏jai shree krishna . lord krishna bless you .

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Thanks

[@yt-viewerfromger320]

Forgot to pin this on top..? Btw: Chloe could have some German background, she likes to speak German, right?

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Thanks for letting us know. 👍 Definitely and yes she enjoys learning German.

[@txibiam6117]

5:24 just a clarification in case I missunderstood that part in the video: Iberian is not northern-african, Iberian means from the Iberian Peninsula which is in south-western europe (Spain and Portugal)

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Ah thanks for the clarification. I think on the map it overlayed northern Africa slightly bit.

[@alani3992]

There is a lot of DNA exchange between the Iberians & North-Africa. The Moorish incursion into Spain, & the Vandals 'vandalizing' Africa, & many others.

[@txibiam6117]

​@@GrowingUpWithoutBorders I think that just means that it can also be found in small quantities in those areas, but it's not the native ancestry found in northern africa

[@JoaoVentura]

@@txibiam6117 It's hard to tell apart "Iberian" and North (West) African. I don't have a known North African ancestor in my last 13-14 generations, and yet I'm about 2% North African, 60% Portuguese (99% according to the records) and 23% Spanish (results from AncestryDNA). As to what is native... It was a all a Roman lake.

[@alani3992]

This does not mean that you are from 'all' these countries. Some of your ancestors were from these region/s, & their descendants now live in these countries. The site needs to clarify this, & should also tell you how many generations back those ancestors lived in those regions.

[@BasicFishingNZ]

i do remember seeing a video where you guys introduced urselves as Canadian swedish. but interesting how you pretty much span all of europle haha

[@MalikNADEEMAwan-786]

❤❤Nice content &interesting vedio❤❤

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Glad you liked it!

[@dwilliams7377]

So much fun! Have you been to all of the Eastern European countries? And do you feel a connection to the areas your ancestors are from? I’d love to do an ancestry tour to visit Scotland and Germany. My ancestors are also from Canada too!

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Yes! We've been to all of the Eastern European countries. We love touring them but no real connection feeling. It's so cool to go back to your roots and see where you are from. I feel more of the connection with Western Europe simply because my dad was born and raised in Switzerland so I grew up in a home with this type of culture.

[@kolentordurima4153]

I love you video 🤩 ❤ 🇨🇦

Yeah...wait til you see where we come from. We were really surprised and it's not fully what we expected. At all. 😂

[@pepegotera8598]

If one day you travel to Spain remember, here the weather seasons are very extreme, very cold in winter and very hot in August, remember to bring sunscreen.I would recommend autumn or spring better if you are not allergic.

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

We’d love to come back to Spain!! So many great memories from our time there.

[@miam1074]

it's not where you are from. it is about where, in which countries are there people that are related to you...by DNA. BTW, fifth cousin is a relative with whom you shared an ancestor about 200 years ago...

[@sal78sal]

They are all obviously some sort of European mixture. The pretty daughter looks very German and maybe Danish. the Irish looking daughter looks Irish but could be from anywhere in europe. The 3rd daughter looks like she could be from anywhere. Father look Irish. Mother looks French.

[@goneby100]

We are from all over planet, in many ways, what a knowing, all our humanity is connected.

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Yes that is true .

Sweet ❤

[@cadifan]

My family has been in New Zealand since the mid 1800s and my MyHeritage DNA results came back as expected, 74.1% English, 25% Scottish, Welsh & Irish, and from my Maori ancestor 0.9% Inuit. Inuit! WTF, that was a surprise!

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Wow that’s crazy!

[@rodrigodiaz7167]

that's likely an error in my opinion. they sometimes have some low % wrong. but yeah i'm not surprised with your stats bs australians are super pure british even the accent unlike white americans that are mostly non-british

[@irinairina4665]

Я родилась в Молдавии, живу в Румынии у меня 1,8% Baltic, 1,6% Finnish. Наши предки ото всюду.

[@SreeramReddyB]

But why that website says subscription? DNA test is only a one time thing.

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

They have both. You can do just the DNA test or you can buy the subscription to have the whole family tree and link to others with the same DNA.

[@miam1074]

@@GrowingUpWithoutBorders but by the time you get yourresults, the free 1 month you get expires...so in case you want to see if you can trace some relatives, you have to pay a yearly subscription. not sure exactly how much, I think it is around 140€....

[@autumnphillips151]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@GrowingUpWithoutBorders You don’t have to have a subscription to see your DNA matches or use the tree-builder or look at others’ trees.

[@tototoaaa]

Since you are Canadian, I believe Iberian peninsula came from south France. The south french people are close genetically to northern Spanish.

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Yes very possible.

[@ivanovichdelfin8797]

No sé por qué pero KZbin me recomendó ver el vídeo, así que decidí verlo. Desde el principio, estaba seguro de que daríais un porcentaje significativo de herencia española. Ciertos rasgos en vuestra apariencia hacen definitivamente sospechar de eso.

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Tampoco estoy seguro de por qué se recomendó, pero me alegra que te hayas unido a nosotros en este vídeo. Un buen porcentaje de nuestro patrimonio es de esa región de España/Portugal. Me sorprendió bastante lo variados que fueron mis resultados.

[@autumnphillips151]

I haven’t done a test myself, but two of my ancestors-both of my father’s parents-have. Grandpa did a MyHeritage test, and Grandma did an AncestryDNA test. Grandpa’s results were 45.7% “Irish, Scottish, and Welsh”; 36.4% Scandinavian; and 17.9% Iberian. And Grandma’s results were 49% “England & Northwestern Europe”; 39% Scotland; 6% Ireland; 3% “Baltics”; 2% Wales; and 1% “Germanic Europe”. ETA: We’re pretty much just your basic White Americans from the central U.S. whose ancestors have been here for centuries.

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Yep and way back when you would have come from one of Noah's sons. That's what we learned today from one of the oldest towns in the world in a place called Byblos which dates back to 6000 to 7000 BC. Crazy right!!! Our guide explained to much history and the lineage...it was mind boggling.

[@stoilstoilov5572]

The girl at left really looks from Bulgaria - the land of Thracians, Macedonians, pra-Bulgarians (Aryans, Kushans and Scythians) and Slavs - the most ancient Indo-European civilizations. Bulgaria is the oldest country in Europe. From Varna is the most ancient gold treasure in the world. The first fortress and ancient (5000 BC) salt production place in Europe is in the town of Provadia and so on. Bulgaria is the place of the first biggest civilization - The Danube or Old Europe civilization of some 5-6 thousand BC. So you are lucky to have such famous ancient ancestors. Be happy both of you.

[@daapengineer9226]

Waw, hope it works

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Yeah the results were crazy!

[@COCOGROCOSHOW]

Chloe ,your dad look definitely like German and your mom looks definitely like Balkan ladies . In one of the first videos I watched from your YT channel ,I thought this lady must be from Serbia ,Croatia or maybe Check or Slovakia but defiantly Slavic . Cheers ,Serb from Canada,Ontario

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Yea it’s interesting that’s for sure ..

[@aliciacallegari8482]

Ça me surprend que vous avez les deux des origines principales qui sont européennes !!!Ca doit être trop cool à faire j’aimerais essayer 😍😍

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

La plus part does Canadians et Americans a l’époque sont venus de l’Europe. C’est pourquoi aux Québec ils parlent français. Il sont venus de la France. 😂😂

Ah oui c’est vrai du coup ça vous fait pas mal d’origines européens enfet

Chantal, when I first started watching your videos I actually thought you were Portuguese. Weird how these things turn out.

Wow

[@faiqsabih3215]

One of your grandparents was most probably born as an Ashkenazi Jew based on your jew and Balkan %. You also probably got a bit of native from your mom that their algorithm didn't pick up (it's notorious for not detecting some ethnicities). You look a bit racially ambiguous from your jewish, Mediterranean and native ancestry

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Yeah who knows.

[@richj120952]

Everyone's DNA is not an exact match to someone else in your family. As an example, my sister and I have had our DNA tests done. Her makeup of where here DNA comes from is not the same as mine. (Although the areas in general are the same, the percentages are not.) Same parents, different makeup..

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Yeah you’re right.

[@lizdyson3627]

Where's the canadian blood?

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Well technically everyone in Canada is from other countries unless we were part indigenous descendants which we are not.

Yep. Myheritage is completely whack for most people.

[@anna3046]

Iberia has nothing to do with North Africa. Iberian genes are celtic R1B genes and North Africa would be J1 or E1.

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Maybe the circle encompassed this area on their site because Spain occupied a bit of the top of Africa.

[@cowlo9990]

79% northwestern european is a lot. northwestern european is primarily germanic so dutch, german, belgium and germany. MyHeritages algorythm is sadly very old and never got updated and its kinda annoying because "northwestern european" is such an umbrella term and not specific at all. You should definietely download your raw data and upload it for free to Gedmatch where you can also see to which nations people you are most similar too. I guess that she is most similar to southern germans.

People of Aashkenazi Jewish people first migrated to Southern Europe around 2,000 years ago, coming from Western Asia. Then - in the Middle Ages - many Jewish people living in southern Europe moved north. They primarily settled in northeastern France and western Germany near the Rhine River.
