[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Spain is generally unwelcoming, and I speak Spanish fluently. People just are serious and gruff as a whole. Agree that Paris got better, I think some of it is the Olympics effect and pride that generated, not to mention physical improvements to the city which is so much cleaner now. People have become more patient. Smaller towns in France are fine and friendly as a whole, just more reserved. Switzerland is not welcoming at all.[/quote]

Spain has a huge British ex-pat community and in those areas the residents seem to be tapped out on tourists. The British are not that popular worldwide. [/quote]

British are not popular worldwide? Odd comment. Unless you are British, how would you even know?[/quote]

I think this poster is talking about the obnoxious young British tourists going to warm parts of Europe acting like drunk fools on Spring break, the older British tourists moving to the warm parts of Europe and creating their own communities, bringing up local prices for all...[/quote]

Amsterdam literally ran an ad campaign telling the Brits to stay home.
