I won't say what denomination of Buddhism I am, though.
I now will say:
I will now tell you what kind of Buddhism I am. I am a Theravada buddhist.
Here is a famous Theravada website:
http://accesstoinsight.org
This Theravada website -- if I remember correctly -- had links to non-english Theravada websites, but I cannot find that links page anymore at accesstoinsight.org.
I found, though, through a google search what looks like -- not sure if it really is -- the links page I saw of the past at accesstoinsight.org. The URL is http://pratyeka.org/a2i/outsources/foreign.html
Here are the links from that page:
