I'm a little late in answering, but I would choose the same culture
(Scottish)--my mother is a descendant of Clan Chisholm, and I find the
history and culture of Scotland fascinating. My base period is fairly early
(ca.1085) because I can easily do the garb myself, but I also sometimes
switch periods (such as wearing the great kilt) and just consider myself a
descendant when I do. I also am considering an alternate persona, a Jewish
one, as my father had a Jewish grandfather.
