It's a country in south Asia. It used to be part of India.

Well, my father's side of the family is Irish, my mother's side is from Ecuador (That's in South America, for those of you who are bad at Geography. Razz

)

Mother was actually born in Ecuador, but dad was born in Pennsylvania, US. My paternal great-grandmother was Italian, I believe. My paternal grandmother, not related to my great-grandmother, is part Welsh and Finnish, or something like that. It's very complicated, and quite confusing.

Basically, I am mainly Irish and Ecuadorian.

Phew, why couldn't I have started with that? Razz

I forgot to actually say, I live in New Jersey. Not a big city like Newark, just a small town.

It's in Europe.

Read about it here: Kosovo

Or look at it in the photo. I got it from Wikipedia.

I'm from a small, quaint town that's located conveniently near New York City, in Westchester.

Gosh, that sounded like a travel booklet.

So yeah, I go out to NYC a lot, or at least more than someone who lives in Philadelphia might. (Speaking of that I also frequent Philadelphia; my favorite place is The Franklin Institute. Sadly, New York doesn't have a science museum, although natural history is almost as good.)

My ancestors are from Russia and both of my parents are from Pennsylvania. (More later. I have to take a shower; plus, my computer "curfew" is 9:00.)

Cool, another East Coaster! Haha, well, doesn't NYC have the Liberty Science Center? Ah, well, the Franklin Institute is my favorite museum.
