This is an interesting aspect of moving onto a boat and going travelling. I have dual nationality, British and Canadian. Living here, I use the British passport as it means I can work, and I am also, and think of myself as, a Spanish resident. And at a certain level, identify as Catalan, partially as so many of the Catalans do the same with me. I have been confered this status.
As we move away from here, and our tax status changes, I am starting to feel more overtly Canadian.
It is a light happy feeling in many ways and has caught me a bit by surprise. It's not that I have ever not felt Canadian, but it was mixed into a range of other identities. Now it is coming down more to one. Not entirely, my ties here are still strong. I maintain my residency status, but there is a shift there and it is interesting.
