Genealogy / Do I look Polish? (my picture) [375]

Very detailed description, Eliseusz. No, I'm not an ethnic Pole, I'm Finnish. Perhaps not the most typical looking Finn, but still 100% Finnish.

I don't really think I look very German. I think I look very North Eastern European, maybe not exactly Polish, but more Lithuanian, Latvian or Estonian.

Could be Polish, but at the same time be any ethnicity which has Nordic blood in the mix, (German, Estonian, Russian, Swedish, Dutch..) You don't really have a typical Slavic face, light(er) hair and eyes with a slight Asian twist to it.

Well, I'm from Eastern Finland, so your guess was quite correct. By Asian twist I suppose you mean the slightly slanted eyes and high cheekbones.

You don't look like typical Spanish either (already checked your profile).

Haha! I also think that I don't look typical Spanish either, even though people with very light features can also be found in Spain.

In Poland we have a mixture of all types of looks from the whole Europe, show me the example of Briton that would not pass as a Pole.

James Hewitt, Prince Harry, Kate Winslet, Cheryl Cole, etc.

No, I'm not Slavic (as far is I know).

why would people assume you are not polish if you are white?

Oops! I forgot to quote, I'm sorry. Here's my answer to your question: Because white people look very different depending on where they come from ie. many Russians would not pass as Norwegians and many Britons would not fit into Poland.

Hello everyone! I would like to know if I look Polish to you, since while being in Poland people didn't assume I was foreign.
