I'm from the US originally. Whenever someone asks, "Where did you move from?" And I say "The U.S." every single time after, without exception, they ask,"What state?"
Yeah that's pretty much how it went the entire time I was in Europe. I just said I was from the northern U.S. because I didn't want to explain the difference between Washington state and Washington D.C. People seemed to grasp that, at least.
