I'm 20 and have a weak spot for tacky print shirts, including Hawaiian. But you won't catch me dead in sun visors. My only children are my cats and dogs right now, but I'm already practicing them dad jokes.
The most common stereotype i know is Asian tourists taking pictures of literally everything. I remember a guy from aforementioned group taking a picture of a homeless person taking a dump in a trashcan
(Im American) ya know it kind of funny because many Americans such as myself say terms such as gday, we end sentences sometimes with mate, etc. we adopt some vocabulary from other countries, mostly because we people from everywhere live here.
As an Uber driver, I had a woman from Sweden as a passenger. I asked her if it was ok for me to eat while I drive since I had been driving for 10 hours without much of a break, other than getting gas. She asked me why I was working so hard and I told her so I could pay rent. She was genuinely worried about my health and offered to take me somewhere to eat to get off the road for a bit. I told her I was ok and she asked me why do I work harder yet make less than most Americans. I told her most Americans do not make much more than I do.
Yea I definitly don’t want socialism but citizens are not as wealthy as other countries think, some are but most are middle class/low class. But what makes america great is we all have a chance to become very successful because of capitalism.
@@detpistons4l401 You can be successful in scandinavia too though. Maybe you wont make as much as you could through america. But you can live a very good life in middle class as you dont have to worry about suddenly becoming sick and having to pay large sums for medical bills because the taxes you and everyone pays covers that and much more including education. It isnt communism. You can make your own business here too and make alot of money from it if it goes well. Think about the creator of minecraft for example. Taxes may be high here but its well worth it.
@@BetalerIkkeSkatt If you wanna work your whole life then ig it’s cool. And only reason hospital bills are super expensive is if you don’t have insurance. So instead of all those taxes y’all pay we pay for insurance which covers the cost of our medical bills.

As a Norwegian my experience with American tourists and expats has always been very positive, my general impression is that Americans are the most outgoing of all the nationalities I've met and they are always easy to talk to and fun to hang out with.
When I visited the Dominican Republic, the hotel staff thought we were Canadian because we were polite instead of rude, stereotypes are annoying, and more American tourists need to be nicer to others.
Infographics Show: Makes an episode about American stereotypes and how we do things wrong. Never have I been so offended by something I 100 percent agree with.
I was in Japan once. I found the school uniforms fascinating so I asked some students passing by if I could take their photo. I had to try and use hand gestures and finally one of the girls stepped forward, took my camera and took a photo of me. It was so awkward, I just said thank you. I’ve been curious about how to ask in Japanese ever since
@Koal Kottentail Younger Chinese tourists are different. They don't fit into the stereotype. Like in this video a lot of those stereotypes for Americans are of boomers not millennials
They kinda odd here in Milwaukee. I don't mind but they stay in large groups they also stop to stare at african Americans and take pictures afar which is a bit unnerving but I mostly just write it off as a first encounter experience
Yifei Ren I’ve witnessed young Chinese tourists in Hokkaido crossing over the No Entry sign of the lavender fields to take pictures 😑. How are they different?
99% of them are. I have encountered some in York and the Lake District who werent particularly pleasant about the local accents . They weren't exactly easily to understand though . Please don't do this . Please keep your opinions to yourself . People are happy to talk slower and more clearly . But don't make fun of their accents
It is not "culture appropriation" it is trying to do what the locals do so American's do not offend people. I am an American who lived in a foreign country for 4 years. And a lot of the people I met, wanted me to wear their traditional clothing for festivals and local holidays when everyone else was wearing traditional clothing. They were trying to get me to experience their culture. No one thought I was "culture appropriationing" They were welcoming to me. I understand this is stereotypes, but a lot of these are not true. But I do know Europeans have the more negative views on Americans vs Asia or other other continents.
I was vacationing in south Korea with my wife. We went for a walk in downtown Akpo. I should mention that Neither my wife nor I are Korean and Akpo isn't a large tourist destination. We where there visiting her father and mother who both worked in the country in high paying professional jobs. so we kinda stuck out amongst all the Koreans. While we where walking a young salary-man on a bike rode by us and stared so much at us that he ran right into an elderly man on a scooter. He flipped over his bike and the old man's scooter nearly careened right into busy traffic. We found out later that Korea doesn't have the same taboo against staring at people that other countries in the west do. If they can be so easily distracted by a couple of foreigners taking a walk to the shops then maybe they should start appropriating a culture of not staring at people. xD
Funny Story: a group of asian tourists was walking around photographing everything as if it was the moon, and then the geniuses decided they wanted to go take some pictures of a cabin cruiser, so they went onboard and took turns taking pictures in the drivers seat and one even took a can of cola from the fridge! You can imagine how angry the owner was when he came out of the restaurant he was in, i was eating there too, i was sitting up on a balcony and had a great view. Me and my family laughed so much
I'm confused. So you're upset when Americans try to connect to you using your culture and also upset when they don't try to connect to you with you using your culture. Make up your mind.
I was studying in Germany and was the only one in my group from the USA that spoke German... this one guy was trying to get me to ask 20 questions with the bartender about what beer would be the best for him.
This reminds me of my trip when I was in the American War Museum in Vietnam, a really incredible place which shows the history of the American Vietnam War. There's victims of Agent Orange on the top floor followed by Swaths of farmlands and settlements being obliterated to craters, which was so upsetting to see. And there was this American tourist going around the museum with a studded T-shirt with an American flag and loads of guns on it and right in the middle with big bold writing, *”FREEDOM!, THE AMERICAN WAY!.”*
yeah i remember going to germany because i love german culture (i researched manners and know some german) and tried to be as respectful as possible but i was denied service for “being american” which is sad (and borderline xenophobic)
I remember the first time i saw Americans the first thing i looked at was my skin and thought they were sick.Please note that i was 5 at the time I didnt know what offended people.
Used to be a tour guide in Scotland, have had about 100+ Americans on them. Quite a lot of this is true in my expiernece, however with some variations: - Whilst at first seeming over and fake, most genuinely were friendly and were very nice. - Many were the first to get involved in the "fun" aspects, keen to volunteer be used as props for storytelling. I always appreciated that, even if it was *too* keen sometimes. - They TIP WELL, and always showed gratitude - They were noticeably "louder" than others, even in a conversation. This was a constant, I even had to make up a regular joke when passing a graveyard for americans to not wake up the dead. - They liked to talk about the USA a lot, sometimes too much. - They were keen to ask questions about the city, especially coming up after the tour. - Interestingly, almost all of them were very much believers in the supernatural... - The younger folk were often, well, very much more "forward" and "flirty" than most. I witnessed quite a few times some younger American tourists head off with people they met on the tour. Overall: I preferred them over many other tourists for sure! Just, indoor voices needs to be worked on 😂 Oh and clothing/fashion? Yea, this video hit that right on the nail! 😂
Well it wasn’t a tourist but one time when I worked on a friends dairy farm a German family made a visit to try multiple items we had available. Only one out of the five spoke somewhat English but it was still hard to understand. I had to go get my boss as she and her family knew both English and German fluently so I just stood there like an idiot watching the two chatter in German and complete a regular business deal, but I didn’t understand a word that was said the whole time. 😂
I was in germany and I put my foot on another seat to stretch it out and a German police officer started yelling at me. He demanded my passport and when I gave it to him he turned and said oh Texas ? And walked off 😂😂😂😂😂
Valentine Love I read a bunch what I usually do is google Russian news English and typically it pulls up there news sites. Just replace Russian with whatever country
I’m American, I’ve been wanting to travel the world ever sense I was little, and by looking at most of these comments makes me not want to leave my country any more, I don’t get why people dislike us
Think of this as a guide to what not to do . These people who do this make up a small percentage. Don't ever let it stop you travelling . Oh and most people don't dislike you .
I’m really scared to go to a different country as an American. I’m afraid I’ll do something wrong even if I do my research and my anxiety doesn’t help that either...
When i was on the bus coming home from school a few years ago, an American teen came sat next to me and started trying to get to know me and telling me about her life. I get she was trying to be friendly as seemed really nice, but i was a shy English school kid and got a-bit freaked out by the sudden conversation as we tend not to speak to strangers on the bus.
Actually American’s smiles 🙂 is the main thing I like about them, I have no issues with that. Much better than some others walking in grumpy faces. I just hope “some” Americans would educate themselves about the country before visiting it (just the basics) as to avoid a lot of awkward situations, unlike other tourists they seem to know less about the world. No hate.
I feel like the uptight or "my money can buy anything" vibe is because only people with money travel outside of country. And here, that's exactly how those people are. Ignorant, but it doesn't matter, they have money, they don't need anything else out here. We hate it here, too. But there's really no use trying to change it because those types of people are really dense. I for one, have always been poor, I'm bilingual, learning a third language, I like learning about other cultures, and I try to be polite. But people with money here don't usually do that, though.
Yeah... I went to el Salvador to visit my uncle and he told me to put on their type of clothes so I look like a local and get charged less for a popusa
Interesting. My high school in Arizona required at least 2 years of foreign language to graduate. I thought that was US-based. While it's not exactly "knowing" or being fluent in another language, I thought was the bare minimum for the whole country.
Me as well. I started taking it in middle school actually. 2 years of Spanish and 2 years of french. Parlez-Vous Espanol? .....I think that turned out pretty well 🙂.
Also if you're traveling internationally from the US, the best place to start is Australia. Yes, their accent can be difficult to decipher from an American POV but they are the most culturally similar imo. More than the UK or CAD. Plus the AUS dollar is weaker than the US dollar meaning you are spending less than the sticker price (though everything is ore expensive in return.)

that is what you would refer to as ‘scammers’ not locals
yes
Its because they think u dont notice it if u do tell dem
Thisbis true… for public parks and attractions they have two different set of ticket prices… one local and the other for a foreigner
How dare those Americans.. *flips through book* smile
When I visited the Dominican Republic, the hotel staff thought we were Canadian because we were polite instead of rude, stereotypes are annoying, and more American tourists need to be nicer to others.
Infographics Show: Makes an episode about American stereotypes and how we do things wrong.
Never have I been so offended by something I 100 percent agree with.
*First topic* "They love sweat pants." Glances over to wardrobe full of sweats with 3 pairs of jeans. "Well, they ain't wrong. XD"
3:58 Did you really replaced the german flag with a turned belgian flag? I mean, in the corner, it's the right one!
They came when it got invaded
I was in Japan once. I found the school uniforms fascinating so I asked some students passing by if I could take their photo. I had to try and use hand gestures and finally one of the girls stepped forward, took my camera and took a photo of me. It was so awkward, I just said thank you. I’ve been curious about how to ask in Japanese ever since
i laughed so hard at that omfggg
“American tourists are the worst”
Me: *stares at china*
Young tourists and old tourists from China are two different races. :)
@Koal Kottentail Younger Chinese tourists are different. They don't fit into the stereotype. Like in this video a lot of those stereotypes for Americans are of boomers not millennials
They kinda odd here in Milwaukee. I don't mind but they stay in large groups they also stop to stare at african Americans and take pictures afar which is a bit unnerving but I mostly just write it off as a first encounter experience
Yifei Ren I’ve witnessed young Chinese tourists in Hokkaido crossing over the No Entry sign of the lavender fields to take pictures 😑. How are they different?
i will never forget those videos of chinese tourists absolutely vacuuming up a table of food
Infographics show: says Americans don’t know about the world.

Alright than speak creole and tell me all the worlds in Japanese or Spanish
Some countries on yakko's world is not correct

@@tonk2629 okay i am sorry if i didn't read it correctly, but im not blind people make mistakes.
@@tonk2629 Thats a bit rude. No very rude. And it disrespects how some people really are blind. Pls bbe nice
Let me correct the title: Worst Stereotypes About American Boomers When They Travel.
So true
Ok boomer
Not exactly some of these are specifically targeted at millennials and younger too
Or boomers period
this pathetic boomer meme is old already.
I remember watching a tiktok saying that Europeans prefer Canadians rather than Americans and I dont blame them.
All the America tourists I've met in London and other parts of the UK have been perfectly charming
Looool
99% of them are. I have encountered some in York and the Lake District who werent particularly pleasant about the local accents . They weren't exactly easily to understand though .
Please don't do this . Please keep your opinions to yourself .
People are happy to talk slower and more clearly . But don't make fun of their accents

"Not all Americans do XYZ"
They prefer abc
What do you do for a living? I mind my own business Bihhhhh!!😂😂😂😂😂😂 Freaking loved that part!😂
It is not "culture appropriation" it is trying to do what the locals do so American's do not offend people.
I am an American who lived in a foreign country for 4 years. And a lot of the people I met, wanted me to wear their traditional clothing for festivals and local holidays when everyone else was wearing traditional clothing. They were trying to get me to experience their culture. No one thought I was "culture appropriationing" They were welcoming to me.
I understand this is stereotypes, but a lot of these are not true. But I do know Europeans have the more negative views on Americans vs Asia or other other continents.
Ha! You got one stereotype wrong, I'm broke and am about to live on the streets.
As a Canadian, being mistaken for an American is often what happens to me. And when I say, “no, we’re Canadian” we get smiles and better service.
Not all Americans are like this (just some). These types of tourists set up a bad example of their home country.
@Lvis Gaming Roblox YT no that's the minority.most are very informed actually.
there was a chinese foreign exchange student and i brought my phone to class and used google translate to talk with him
I was vacationing in south Korea with my wife. We went for a walk in downtown Akpo. I should mention that Neither my wife nor I are Korean and Akpo isn't a large tourist destination. We where there visiting her father and mother who both worked in the country in high paying professional jobs. so we kinda stuck out amongst all the Koreans. While we where walking a young salary-man on a bike rode by us and stared so much at us that he ran right into an elderly man on a scooter. He flipped over his bike and the old man's scooter nearly careened right into busy traffic. We found out later that Korea doesn't have the same taboo against staring at people that other countries in the west do. If they can be so easily distracted by a couple of foreigners taking a walk to the shops then maybe they should start appropriating a culture of not staring at people. xD
Funny Story: a group of asian tourists was walking around photographing everything as if it was the moon, and then the geniuses decided they wanted to go take some pictures of a cabin cruiser, so they went onboard and took turns taking pictures in the drivers seat and one even took a can of cola from the fridge! You can imagine how angry the owner was when he came out of the restaurant he was in, i was eating there too, i was sitting up on a balcony and had a great view. Me and my family laughed so much
Lol, I think I know which country they came from. They give the rest of us a bad name.
@@foldingwishes And that is racist
I speak spanish, french, and a little Portuguese. I visit El Salvador and Canada frequently and almost none of those stereotypes apply to me.
“We don’t speak English”
The name of the stand is in English
Because the people who made the video don't speak other languages than english, didn't you listen to what they said in the video? ;D
@@JohnDoe-ky9yn That's a contradiction
In 3:42 the guy's saying that he doesn't know english,and he says that in italian
I'm confused. So you're upset when Americans try to connect to you using your culture and also upset when they don't try to connect to you with you using your culture. Make up your mind.
When americans try to do so, they tend to do it on a very surface-level
It's fine to do that if you know what you are talking about. If you don't it seems superficial.
I literally just got ripped apart for 10 minutes.
Yeah because your American
@@Askial_Osial Way to point out the obvious, my guy.
American tourist: perfectly speaks local language
Locals: *[visible confusion]*
I was studying in Germany and was the only one in my group from the USA that spoke German... this one guy was trying to get me to ask 20 questions with the bartender about what beer would be the best for him.
My mom: Want to go to France.
Me: Is dad coming?
Mom: yes
Me: Ight ima head out
Me: looks like he came 20 years ago
This reminds me of my trip when I was in the American War Museum in Vietnam, a really incredible place which shows the history of the American Vietnam War. There's victims of Agent Orange on the top floor followed by Swaths of farmlands and settlements being obliterated to craters, which was so upsetting to see. And there was this American tourist going around the museum with a studded T-shirt with an American flag and loads of guns on it and right in the middle with big bold writing, *”FREEDOM!, THE AMERICAN WAY!.”*
Source dude trust me
yeah i remember going to germany because i love german culture (i researched manners and know some german) and tried to be as respectful as possible but i was denied service for “being american” which is sad (and borderline xenophobic)
I remember the first time i saw Americans the first thing i looked at was my skin and thought they were sick.Please note that i was 5 at the time I didnt know what offended people.
lol
I'm sorry about that, we aren't all like that
what kinda americans are you talking about
North korea: WE make the rules to the tourist
There are a ton of American tourists in Mexico, and even people that live here. They are very nice and polite.
Used to be a tour guide in Scotland, have had about 100+ Americans on them. Quite a lot of this is true in my expiernece, however with some variations:
- Whilst at first seeming over and fake, most genuinely were friendly and were very nice.
- Many were the first to get involved in the "fun" aspects, keen to volunteer be used as props for storytelling. I always appreciated that, even if it was *too* keen sometimes.
- They TIP WELL, and always showed gratitude
- They were noticeably "louder" than others, even in a conversation. This was a constant, I even had to make up a regular joke when passing a graveyard for americans to not wake up the dead.
- They liked to talk about the USA a lot, sometimes too much.
- They were keen to ask questions about the city, especially coming up after the tour.
- Interestingly, almost all of them were very much believers in the supernatural...
- The younger folk were often, well, very much more "forward" and "flirty" than most. I witnessed quite a few times some younger American tourists head off with people they met on the tour.
Overall:
I preferred them over many other tourists for sure! Just, indoor voices needs to be worked on 😂
Oh and clothing/fashion? Yea, this video hit that right on the nail! 😂
Indonesian : *Smile intensifies*
Well it wasn’t a tourist but one time when I worked on a friends dairy farm a German family made a visit to try multiple items we had available. Only one out of the five spoke somewhat English but it was still hard to understand. I had to go get my boss as she and her family knew both English and German fluently so I just stood there like an idiot watching the two chatter in German and complete a regular business deal, but I didn’t understand a word that was said the whole time. 😂
I was in germany and I put my foot on another seat to stretch it out and a German police officer started yelling at me. He demanded my passport and when I gave it to him he turned and said oh Texas ? And walked off 😂😂😂😂😂
Wait just because we're Texans, he let you off? Wow, not bad XD srsly tho, what's wrong with putting your foot on the seat?
Moonie 's because it’s not illegal
Just weird
And kind of disgusting
Nathan Tolladay it’s not weird or disgusting if you don’t do it barefoot
I’m glad I love reading news from other countries. Gives you a different perspective
Do you know any news sources from other countries? I rely on Twitter as news of other countries.
Valentine Love I read a bunch what I usually do is google Russian news English and typically it pulls up there news sites. Just replace Russian with whatever country
Viper_FPV thanks
You can spot an American easily based on the type of diabetes they have
lol wth
bruh i got dat type five doe
Woah more America bad comments
I don’t have diabetes. I’m waiting for the new release coming out next month.
I’m American, I’ve been wanting to travel the world ever sense I was little, and by looking at most of these comments makes me not want to leave my country any more, I don’t get why people dislike us
Think of this as a guide to what not to do . These people who do this make up a small percentage.
Don't ever let it stop you travelling .
Oh and most people don't dislike you .
I’m really scared to go to a different country as an American. I’m afraid I’ll do something wrong even if I do my research and my anxiety doesn’t help that either...
be yourself. most of the time they will tolerate you. just be respectful.
When i was on the bus coming home from school a few years ago, an American teen came sat next to me and started trying to get to know me and telling me about her life. I get she was trying to be friendly as seemed really nice, but i was a shy English school kid and got a-bit freaked out by the sudden conversation as we tend not to speak to strangers on the bus.
How do you get to know people then?
@@freetris9556 Through freinds and workplaces. Schools and colleges and so on . Hobbies and night classes .
I could go on
AMERICANS DO NOT DRESS IN BADLY SIZED BAGGY WEIRD CLOTHES, AND WE DO NOT WEAR HAWAIIAN FLOWER CLOTHES
Actually American’s smiles 🙂 is the main thing I like about them, I have no issues with that. Much better than some others walking in grumpy faces.
I just hope “some” Americans would educate themselves about the country before visiting it (just the basics) as to avoid a lot of awkward situations, unlike other tourists they seem to know less about the world. No hate.
Ugh. Makes me not want to even attempt travel outside of the US.
@@priciliar.s.simarmata2373 This is a guide lf what not to do .
American tourists in Kenya are actually pretty chill but also very adventurous
If you're an American visiting another country, you might want to just tell people you're from Canada.
I feel like the uptight or "my money can buy anything" vibe is because only people with money travel outside of country. And here, that's exactly how those people are. Ignorant, but it doesn't matter, they have money, they don't need anything else out here.
We hate it here, too. But there's really no use trying to change it because those types of people are really dense. I for one, have always been poor, I'm bilingual, learning a third language, I like learning about other cultures, and I try to be polite.
But people with money here don't usually do that, though.
Yeah... I went to el Salvador to visit my uncle and he told me to put on their type of clothes so I look like a local and get charged less for a popusa
Those are the best, my brother loves them.
Interesting. My high school in Arizona required at least 2 years of foreign language to graduate. I thought that was US-based. While it's not exactly "knowing" or being fluent in another language, I thought was the bare minimum for the whole country.
Me as well. I started taking it in middle school actually. 2 years of Spanish and 2 years of french. Parlez-Vous Espanol? .....I think that turned out pretty well 🙂.
@@Gdub33 I learned ASL & spanish from 5th to 8th grade. I'm in 9th now.
Same rule in Texas. I was told it was a college acceptance thing
literally hundreds of americans come to visit my country every year and ive never seen any single one of those stereotypes.
Honestly I know people who fit these stereotypes perfectly but I fit none of these(expect the clothing thing)lol
Fun fact: it's normal to wear socks with sandals in czech republic
Dude I swear I do like more than half of these 😂😂
😂
American stereotypes are basically when yankees being ridiculed as southerners by foreigners.
Also if you're traveling internationally from the US, the best place to start is Australia. Yes, their accent can be difficult to decipher from an American POV but they are the most culturally similar imo. More than the UK or CAD. Plus the AUS dollar is weaker than the US dollar meaning you are spending less than the sticker price (though everything is ore expensive in return.)
All the Americans are defending themselves in the comments.
Talk about loyalty?
@Alex Denham lol
Well yes, if a person sees something that isn't true to them they will often speak out against it,not just Americans.
