bi-national couples

On our first date, Fede asked me whether I knew any couples who were bi-national. I could think of several bi-racial couples--but it was a bit harder for me to think of the couples I knew with people from two different countries.

(I remember when he asked me this question thinking that it was some sort of indication that he was hesitant to start a relationship with a non-Mexican--because he did not know of many successful bi-national relationships.) 

But now, I know many more bi-national couples:

1. American - Mexican 
2. American - Taiwanese
3. American - Chinese
4. American - German
5. American - Chilean
6. American - Irish
7. American - Australian
8. Mexican - French
9. Mexican - Russian
10. Mexican - Swiss
11. Swiss - Romanian
12. Australian - Mexican
13. Australian - Finnish
14. Australian - Canadian

I guess we're not so unusual after all.
