I was recording and taking pictures of myself when a group of black Africans started talking agresssive saying i can’t record! In the Vatican! Things became aggressive, and more of them started coming over. All I waa doing was filming the Vatican and takes pictures as most tourist do when going...

One question: Do I look unique, exotic, or interesting? 😂 Because you have no idea how many times I’ve been asked where I’m from!
In Italy, especially Rome, and in Naples by a few people, I got asked multiple times. Even in Greece, it happened a few...
This jew passes like a local in Spain, Italy, and Greece. He can blend in across all these three countries without any problem. But I even say across Europe in general by looks.
Jewish populations display a remarkable range of phenotypes, from Mediterranean and Southern European-looking to Central and Northern European-looking, including Nordic-looking individuals. This diversity allows some Jewish individuals to blend in visually across various European populations...
Hours later a Peruvian in the street asked me if I speak Spanish and when I said Yes, he asked me if I was Colombian. @Kurdquistador @idklolimo @IberoTarasco

And yeah, I get what you mean about...

What do you think? 😂 While in Italy, one Italian used a translator on his phone to tell me about the train station and pickpockets, and he asked if I spoke Portuguese. I assume he thought I was Brazilian lol. I told him I speak English, Spanish, and a little Italian...
My first guessing would be: Greek islander, (possibly mainland also but I will go to Athens the 24, To sauce it out and see) Romanian, Bulgarian. And they can pass in south Italy too and i wouldn’t blink an eye thinking they not from there, I would think them to be Napoli locals. When I visit...
@Kurdquistador Check out my new thread, this is something I mentioned and in my Rank from most to least on why I placed Indians/south Asians last in Italy society. Pakistans have a bit more variety than Indians but yea
