hes german(:

hes cute.

He's a whiteboy.

based on the last name i would say most likely dutch..he even looks a little dutch to me, hes cute!

swiss/french/italian/jewish!there are great enclaves throughout switzerland of language groups from their contiguous borders so it is not odd to have several admixtures of nationalities!...by your coloration,hair type,and head shape my best guess would be that of a more mediterranean type than a gaullish or helvetian type from the days of the romans,although the "fir blog"the black irish were of a more distinctly mediterranean/iberian coloration which is ruddier and darker even without exposure to the elements you don't seem to share that coloration!all physiognomy has been largely debunked ;yet anyone's educated guess can make a lucky interpretation!look for foreign words from central european language...lauter(bom) seem to be separate parts of a compound word...perhaps there is some correlation to lantern or "laudable" someone of good character or a good speaker perhaps!!good luck!greg from california...hit those language learning cds' "word search features"!!best buy has multi-language disks for a very reasonable price!!

His surname is geman, from the first picture i would say he might live there as well, wearing the scarf and type coat seems that way

Looks Armenian even though the last name doesn't presuppose it.

French

White-you said "ethnicity".

dutch

He looks of Germanic/Mediterranean decent.
