I think she means that it's a bit arrogant to welcome people who are here much longer than she. At least that's what I understood.

I am trying to move on by admitting I've lived in Bavaria...

OK, full list:

I was born in Starnberg, Bavaria, Germany
When my sister was born 2 years later, we were living near Ulm, Swabia, also Germany.
By the time I went to Kindergarten, we were living near Ludwigshafen, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany
Then we moved to southern California for a year.
Then to a farm in Oregon for 4 years.
Then to Philomath, Oregon (near Corvallis) for a year.
Then to Hillsboro, Oregon (relatively near Portland) for two years.
Then to Haan, North-Rhine Westphalia, Germany for 6 years.
Then I moved out to Wuppertal, North-Rhine Westphalia, Germany
My parents have just moved to northern Germany (lower Saxony).

Enough moving for a while. I have no idea where home actually is!
