I won't tease you any longer, the answer is Slovensko.
Abelturd, no need to be sorry! I wasn't offended. I didn't know that it was possible to make an inappropriate remark on MR!

I thought it was neat to open up google maps and learn a little something that I didn't know before. One of the cool things about MR is that it exposes each of us to other people and cultures that we otherwise don't have the opportunity to deal with on a day-to-day basis (at least I don't). Sometime if you have the chance, I'd sincerely love to learn more about Slovensko and your life there!

If you look back, *I'm* the one who actually brought up the American stereotype.
