Have to agree, as previously already commented, Americans stand out for lack of knowledge of the whole world. Almost as if they think thecUSA is the largest part of the world, with the rest just minorcaddons.
No idea of distances and sizes of the remaining world.
Yes too they are often actvsurprised by English being normal elsewhere, HOWEVER far worse, they also expect others to earn and speak English, do NOT make effort to learn and speak at least some critical words of foreign languages needed to get around while travelling, hotel, taxi, train airport, etc services. Get very upset when even random passer-by can not respond to an enquiry.
Part of travel issues are expecting the US$ are accepted everywhere, no need to do exchange to have some local cash.
