1. Russian
Mysterious and exotic.
You've got a great balance of danger and allure.

Makes sense, given my love of cold weather and vodka :silly:

I am a mutt. Mostly Irish and about 12 other places.

As for description, I don't know, that no-mans land between austria and switswerland? That and is sounds cooler than andorran, san marinan or some other tiny place.

41. Russian. Weird.
I was a good, but ostracized Russian minor in college because...I didn't drink enough, didn't dance enough and was entirely too shy. Other Russophiles--and the actual Russians teaching in our department--mocked me constantly. Plus, I can't figure out what I entered in that quiz that looked vaguely Russian.

63. I had a similar experience, HypnoToad
I could have chosen more than one of each of the options in each question, depending upon my mood or other factors. I first came up Italian, then French. I don't belong to either ethnic group!

But now I'd better get on those French lessons...
