    Yes, a REAL romany, like my grandparents.
    A really great insight to romany life in a vardo from the good old days.
    Pay attention if you usually hate the travelling community, this is a REAL gypsy, a thoroughly decent & genuine person.. Not to be confused with the "other" types of travellers that you see & hear so much bad press about!
    Kind regards,
    Gary.

    I am Indian and fell in love with the gypsy culture after I saw the movie Black Cat and White Cat at the time I did not know that Gypsies i.e Roma people originally came from India. I was looking at Roma language words there are a lot more words that are common chor(thief) choora(knife) chava (boy in parts of India its mostly slang) chavi (slang for girl in India). Anyways great to find the Indian connection with Roma people. You have our support :)

    @tigruana : I belong to Yenish Travellers who are European originated Nomads and Semi-Nomads and who had nothing to do with Roma People except perhaps the Travelling culture. I know that in Romania there are a lot of Problems between the settled People and the Roma. I do know Romani People from France who lived there since the 14. Centurie and they're normal working Familiys and good people. I can't speaking for all the Roma everywhere, but there are many differences between "Gypsies" you know

    I have never heard any conclusive proof one way or another of whether we came FROM India or THROUGH India. Our DNA is all over India which is proof that we spent a long time there or were from there.
    I am eagerly awaiting conclusion of DNA studies about this subject.

      The DNA is just most likely to be most heavily concentrated where the migration started--especially in this case, since it fits with the linguistic evidence
