Elira couldn't help but perk up her head in pleasant surprise of Kai of not only knowing of her home country but even having heard of the resort town of Ksamil. A location which she was very much familiar with in those days when she would swipe good money off tourist too busy enjoying to pristine beaches and wading in the almost Caribbean-like waters in the few times she visited. Hopefully that wouldn't happen to include Kai's family during their last visit.
“O-oh! I-its pronounced more like... Ksamil. B-but you were close.” reassured Elira, whom couldn't couldn't hide her smile or light blush on her cheeks as she continues blather with unusual excitement “It is beautiful place that most folks don't suspect in Albania. E-especially the Americans. But... must have been awhile since your family last visited. Those beaches have become very popular with tourist these days and there are always folks going to to visit those islands. Usually by boat though.”
As she finished saying what she had in regards to Ksamil, Elira leans her head to look at Kai's phone to look at the spot on the map his finger was pointing to. It was on part of the globe that she had never really noticed and always had just lumped into being of Australia next door. Something she suspect was a terrible assumption but she was never really good with geography outside of Europe. Still, she couldn't help but feel like the ignorant one here.
“Oh so that is New Zealand. Y-yeah about as far away from the Netherlands as you can get actually. So uhh... what is New Zealand like?”
