Omg i had no idea she was part Romanian! lol i get so excited when i find out someone is Romanian because it is so rare that i meet someone else who is where i live lol. And i swear Romanians look like everything in the book! My dad is dark (not gypsy -_-) my mom is very pale, ive meet Romanians that look Asian, Hispanic, White, Black… its almost impossible to tell! (lol btw i came out looking Hispanic.)
