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.

Re: Show us your roots!

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.
