Looks 100% Kuwaiti or Saudi.
Wouldn’t bother with his European ethnicities (Dutch, German, Irish – Lool) because he looks nothing like them whatsoever.
I would stick with Indian and Algerian if I were this guy. He doesn’t look remotely European, let alone German Loool.
He doesn’t have German ancestry, lol
Lol, of course he looks remotely European… he looks fully Caucasian, and many Europeans can have more West Asian appearances..
I agree he looks very Kuwaiti or from Bahrain
“I’ve got a very mixed race background so, although I’m not actually Asian myself, I’ve got distant touches of Indian in me”

He’s part Tunisian too.
he looks pakistani to me
or Kuwaiti
My impression was half South Asian and half white when I first saw him, knew he had some South Asian ancestry, something about him looks clearly influenced in that area.
anything else??
