| | 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. |

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)
