What is the English translation of the Latin phrase 'Quis est'?

This is "who are you, where am I" as filtered through a certain online translation website. The result is poor Latin, though better than most of that site's translations: the main problems are
- es "are" is singular while vos "you" is plural (vos could just be omitted; Latin es doesn't require an explicit subject)
- qua is not interrogative; the proper way to ask "where?" is ubi
