I wonder about mylotters here on what are their nationalities. Funny, that I know we are from different sides of the world, we become united in this site and started to share opinions and become friends. It is really a small world. When I was kid, I didn't expect that I can meet different people without travelling abroad. And now, through the aid of technology, all my wishes seem to come true. And even though I had never gone to any foreign country, I can say to myself I got a background of a certain country by means of its people.
I am from Philippines and proud to be a Filipina. How about you?

Welcome here. I am glad to meet you and yes, it is very seldom I meet a person from Australia. Any way, you are an Aussie, it means you are from Australia? Sorry, I am uncertain with that.

Hi Annie Rose. I come from a small country in Europe that is called England. It is part of the United Kingdom. I live on the edge of a coastal town. My house overlooks the countryside. My home is just a few miles from the sea. I am ever so keen on traveling to different countries. I went to South Africa last year. I took my toddler son to Cape Town and the Garden Route. I shall be traveling with him and my baby daughter to Canada this summer. Yes, it is excellent that My Lot is an international community. I have made friends with My Lot members from many different countries in the world. I hope to visit the Philippines one day to go island hopping and snorkeling.

Yes Rose, I'm from India, the largest peninsular country! My residence is about 60 kms from Bay of Bengal. I, like you, also take much pleasure in meeting as well as making friendship with people of many countries sitting at my laptop in morning and night! What a great advantage of today's technology in this globalized world! Talking, messaging, publishing, opportunities and friendship have already crossed International boundaries and have been accepted as global in status!
Our country India is also a great supporter of this modern application of the concept, "Our world is like one family!" Like you, I have not yet visited any foreign country, but I have hundreds of friends around the world that makes me more spirited to intreact with them regularly!
The aim of all these activities for me is to find everyday a better world, with better humans! Thanks for your such a nice topic. Hope, you will also post such nice discussions in future those may make feel me to write better responses!
Thanks once again and have a good week-end!!

I'm from the Philippines as well. Though Filipino blood runs through my veins, I have 75% Chinese blood as well with a few percentage of Spanish blood.
I'm fond of this site because I was able to make friends with people of various nationalities. I hope to get to know and meet them in person one of these days.
