Americans are everywhere.

Just spent my summer vacation in a little hamlet in Norway. Friendly locals but there were Americans in the local bar every night. Maybe they were just drawn to my beard.<br><br>Fair enough, I can’t say I was disappointed to hear English spoken. The guy that took my order at the cash register was enthusiastic about the American soft drink selection they had, and was hella disappointed that I didn’t know what the hell he was talking about.<br><br>I’ve been in multiple European countries for the last three weeks. Americans on every corner. *What I’m trying to say is* if you want to travel to Europe but don’t want to run into Americans, you’re in trouble.<br><br>Edit: Ok so I have to say, this blew up a bit. Travel in the US, travel in Europe, come visit me in Norway, meet me in France, whatever. I can’t wait to give you all my bs tourist tips. I’m a very friendly guy, and I was happy to encounter you all in my travels. What I meant with this was that I’ve had it in my head that Americans aren’t technically allowed to travel anymore, and in a way it was kind of cool to run into fellow Americans in other countries. I didn’t mean to imply that I’m the first American to travel to Norway, or that American tourists are on the rise. I haven’t been to Europe in probably like five years, so this was just a personal anecdote. I have no idea if it’s more or less, I just thought it was kind of funny. Thanks for the awards and such, I’ll try to post more travel stuff. Maybe I’ll try to do a couple of books and then maybe I’ll run into you all in Iceland- lol!
