Mate, go to Wales, it may change your mind (bloody sheepshagging Welsh).

Sorry, that was a mild jest, but seriously, most Welsh people that I have met are utter xeophobic, misanthropic **.

That was really good. I'm part Irish and German. Never really thought of looking into my heritage before, but reading this makes me want to know more. I've always liked what I've seen in movies about how Ireland looks. People say I look like I'm Irish and I'm like "Whatever!" You wouldn't know I'm Irish if I walked up to you on the street and said "Hi". Wow, I'm ready to go like crack a book on Ireland now! I enjoyed this story.

I like this short tale!! my ancestry is in wales also, but not as close as yours. I think you're lucky to know where your family is from. I want to go to wales, but like you, I don't know if it'll hold up to my dream. good luck, though!
