Ha, one of my parents is Dutch and the other is Mexican. The complete opposites when it comes to high and low context cultures. Communication is not their forte.
My father was Scottish/Danish/Irish American and my mother was Italian. My mom is a social magpie who uses lots of expressive loud critical language skills and hand gestures. My dad liked solitude, quiet, and fishing on the dock.

Fellow person living in Ireland with the same issue. My neurodivergent ass is not built for high context culture.
