Show us your roots!

Simple enough topic, where do your ancestors come from? Intersting to see where people come from

I'm of Romanian ancestry but living in Australia now.

I think my Chinese is not so good but I think you say: Ni Hao ma?

In Romanian you say: Salut!

Would love go go visit China, Japan, and USA sometime.

That's unusual for an American. There can't be many people born in America of Albanian parents.

I live in Britain and all my ancestors are British by the way.

It's not a massive culture like the Italian Americans or Irish Americans, that's for sure. There's a handful of areas in the US where you can find decent sized Albanian American populations. Boston is where my family immigrated to.

Definitely check Kyoto for the tourist stuff. You'll get to see alot of Japanese shrines and temples. Osaka is also a fun city to go to have some fun. Theres also a couple bay area spots right around the city of Tokyo which may be worth visiting. (Odaiba, Yokohama)
