As an American who loves to travel, I'm sure I've committed my fair share of faux pas over the years. I'm usually informed by my family and friends who live overseas that they can often"hear Americans coming" whenever they're out in public, which is basically just code for us being loud as hell.
Maybe it was a relatively innocent mistake, like insisting they get an iced coffee or cold brew at a cafe in Italy. Or even worse, ordering a cappuccino after 11 a.m.You may have witnessed some very ignorant tourists who get frustrated when people around them don't speak English or don't accept US currency.Maybe you were in a museum or historical site and saw a few Americans touch the art or climb over ropes to get a photo of a preserved artifact.
