  • I say Ciao rather often while living in an english speaking country. Rethinking this after getting roasted for this in the new show Stick. Never thought of it as being anything other than natural, having also spent time living in a few spanish speaking countries. Don't want to come across any type of way so thinking about rolling back my usage.
