I'm not Ashkenazy

MY WIFE:

So, where are you from.

THE GUY:
I am from Israel. But I was born at Bulgaria

ME:
So.. Are you Ashkenazy?

THE GUY:
No. I'm not an Ashkenazy.
Do you know why?
Because the Jews in Bulgaria came from Spain.
Now, I don't know how to call it in English but I am not an Ashkenazy.

ME:
So.. are you Sephardim or Mizrahi?

THE GUY:
Ah.. That's it. I'm sepharadi.
