How to interpret
The mirror country is not necessarily where you would want to live. It is the one whose dominant cultural values resonate most with your personality.
Many people discover they are culturally more “Japanese” than they thought, or more “Italian” despite their Nordic origin. National culture is not a biological destiny.
