My Ancestry Test

I ordered an Ancestry test kit on Black Friday and the process was quite simple and user friendly ☺️

📦 I got the kit in the mail and received a saliva test tube, a baggie and the return supplies to ship it back.

🧪 It’s really easy instructions, you just fill the test tube with saliva when you are on an empty stomach and then lock it in the baggie and pack it.

📬 I dropped it off at a Dropbox and waited for a bit. At first I couldn’t see any tracking but after about 2 weeks I finally got an email saying it was received.

📧 After it was received I got consistent emails telling me where my DNA was in the process. FYI it is a process so you can expect about a month before seeing your results.

📊 Finally I got an email saying my results were ready and I logged on the app and learned about my ancestry!

👥 The app also connects you with other people who have taken the test and are related to you. I even got connected with second cousin who reached out once she was notified we were matched!

⭐️Overall rating: 9/10: Just because I couldn’t track the test at first I was a bit uncertain but eventually worked out.

Do the ancestry test. So cool! If you have ever wondered what all you’re made of this is an awesome way to find out. As you can tell, I am majority a European mix. A lot of times Ancestry will have a discount sale around Mother’s Day (I think) and around different dates throughout the year. Anyways
