On my travels I have met many Germans because they are the top travelers in the world. I have only met one person from Papua New Guinea and that was in Samoa. I met a lady from Chile when I was traveling in Romania. I worked with some Brazilian men in Australia. I really like to meet people from different countries. Do you like meeting different nationalities? Which are the less common nationalities that you have met?

Hi Maximax, I like to meet people when I am abroad, in some places they are the nicest things about a country and I have to say the people in Turkey I found the most friendly of all. Here at home I recently met a Bulgarian and a German who were guest of an American friend, I have met French, Italian, British, South African, Australian, Romanian, Austian and Swedish. I'm sure there must have been more as we get many visitors to this area.

I have met people from many different countries. One of my friends is from Indonesia, but she lives here in Denmark. Some years ago I had a boyfriend from South Africa, he also lived here in Denmark. When I was living in Italy I met people from Switzerland and Germany, and when I was living in Scotland my co-workers were from Germany, Hungary, Poland, Finland, Switzerland and Japan. It was very interesting to work with people from a lot of different countries. I have also met people from India, Pakistan, China, Russia, Estonia, the Netherlands, France, The US, Australia, Thailand, Brazil, Ghana, Somalia, Kenya and Uganda.

As an actress I have trained and worked with many different ethnicities of people including Germans, English, Irish, Chinese, Australians, American and South African students. Back in high school working part time as a waitress in a Spanish restaurant I came across many South American tourists from Argentina, Brazil, Chile ect.. I have met a few French people at the Alliance Francaise where I study French and in New Calidonia where I travelled two months ago. As an antrhopologist in training I love meeting people from other countries and through conversing with them getting a little insight into another culture, way of thinking and viewing life. I would have to say that the Kanaks the indigenous people of New Calidonia would have to be one of the less common nationalities I have met. They live alongside the French as the island is a French dependency in the South Pacific. Also a little uncommon are the people from Samoa. I see you have been there too. Im actually part Samoan on my mums side. Along with Dutch,Italian, English and German. There is also apparently Chinese, Scottish and French blood in my history too.

hi maximax i have not been outside my country but i have met Russians and Germans, the guy from Germany named Georg, we become very close friends, he had come to my country to study for a semester in a student exchange program and now he is back to his place and miss him now, he is a great guy and we had a very nice time... Russians are more common here, i used to play cricket with them when i was small, but now we don't need the Russian technicians anymore for our steel plant and so there are a lot fewer of them here now.
