Personally I come from a thick Irish background in my family, I am American but grandparents are from Ireland and we have family over there still...never been but that is on the list as well. Italy though, in life here I have always had this thing for Italian women lol....and I guess through the years of dating them I got to see some sides to the Italian way and the stories from over there and just grew to love the place from that family orientated side. Seems like a very beautiful country...not just the women lol but my fiance has some Italian in here too so that helps lol. Weird I am mostly Irish and have a thing for Italy, that must be unnatural lol
