This is a variation on a theme of Francesca's "Who am I?" thread. The rules are the same, only in this case it would probably be best if we asked one question at a time :).

I'll start:


Its history goes back more than one thousand years.

Is it in Venezuela? Argentina? Brazil? Paraguay?

Dec-31-2013 21:19

It's not in any of those countries :)

Jan-1-2014 11:34

Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Bolivia, Uruguay, or Guyana?

Jan-1-2014 18:01

Nope :)

It is in South America
It is not Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Bolivia, Uruguay, or Guyana.

I was serious with the beans, you know :D

That leaves us with Peru, Suriname, French Guiana and Falkland Islands. Coffee beans, cocoa beans or just plain beans?

Jan-2-2014 06:50

Peru is it :)

Jan-2-2014 12:14

Is it Lima? Lima beans?

Jan-3-2014 06:10

Yes, Dany gets it :D

And yes, it's the silly kind of clue you can only understand after you've already found out in some other way :D

No, the clue was good, but in my case misleading. My historically-oriented mind automatically started searching the list of products that came to Europe after the discovery of the New World: potatoes, tomatoes, corn, turkey etc., but definitely not beans :D.

Ok, here's a new one.

Jan-4-2014 04:38

Haha, I definitely would not have done that :)

Is it in Asia, Africa, North or South America, Australia, Europe, or Antartica? :) Is either the country or the city land-locked?
