The question came up around the office recently about how you know where you come from. You may have been born in another city or another state but does that actually mean you’re from that locale? What if your parents moved from the city you were born in before you were old enough to even remember it? Wouldn’t the city you grew up in, the one that determined what type of person you would be when you became an adult, be the city you’re from?

As always, we didn’t feel comfortable keeping our debate to ourselves and decided to share it with our readers. Below you’ll find a list of 20 definitive items that will help you determine if you’re from Victoria. Answer yes to one and you won’t have to wonder anymore.
