What is the most obscure country from which you've met a person?
Don't count people you've met while traveling to obscure countries. What's the most unusual country from which you've met someone, while going about your normal business in the United States?

I was friends with a guy in college who was from The Gambia. Not just a Gambia, but THE Gambia. That's a small country.

The husband of a friend of mine is from Yemen, which is pretty unusual, and a client of mine once was from Bulgaria. I met someone once whose girlfriend was from the island of Truk, and I really wanted to meet her, but never got the chance.

I'd like to meet a Mongolian person at some point.

In college, my roommate was from Iran. This was during the height of the Iranian hostage crisis. Boy, did he get shit everywhere he went.

Sad thing was, he was in a Jewish minority over in Iran and recently came to the U.S. to escape persecution over there. Poor guy - he was literally like a man without a country.

I live in an international city, so I've met and worked with people from Laos, Cambodia, the Philippines, Uruguay, Paraguay, Guyana, South Korea and even met a guy from Kentucky once (and man, was HE weird).

I met a lady at a party 2 weeks ago from Ecuador. Her English was very good and she was very nice.

We had a housekeeper for a few years that was from El Salvador.

She would get pissed off if people had referred to her as Mexican at any point in her life.

I never understood why.

When I bartended at a Crowne Plaza hotel, one my best work pals was from Eritrea, truly one of the most kindhearted, sweetest guys you could ever want to meet.

That place specialized in international staff, Denmark, Norway, Germany, Croatia, Bosnia, Italy, several African nations, those and several others i've forgotten were all represented.

I tried sooo hard to hook up with this girl from Norway, my Lord she was just incredible, straight from a postcard... tall, platinum blond... mercy.

But she was already hooked up with a genuine, all American asshole and couldn't be pried loose.

On another point, 99% of everyone i've ever met from anywhere in Africa has been one of the nicest, most smiling people you could ever meet.

This guy was nice as can be, but had been in the military since ten, iirc, and once we ran in to a couple guys from Ethiopia.


He was ready to kill. Like totally flipped a switch for a minute. Then got control and chilled out.
