[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also white people focused:

Openness and friendliness to strangers is a very American thing. I’ve noticed that Europeans rarely walk up and make small talk with strangers.

When traveling in European cities, i also notice The cut of clothing. American men rarely well clothing that is really well tailored to their body type, while that is the norm in most big cities in Europe.

Very white teeth is often an American giveaway. [/quote]

I’m not so sure if it’s a white person issue. I’m Mexican, but grew up here in DC. When I go back home to visit, people know just by looking at me, that I am not a local anymore. I look like everybody else, so it must be the way I’m dressing or maybe my haircut? Something about me screams American.[/quote]

When my family visits extended family in india (my family of four were all born and raised in the US), any local can pick us out immediately, even if it’s just me and my daughter wearing Indian clothing and not speaking.  I have no idea how. [/quote]
