I've noticed a few things since I've been back in America.

1. Americans don't travel .
2. No one cares that I've traveled to Asia.
3. Americans are really big.
4. We have huge noses!
5. We are impatient.
6. Americans still think Asia is dirt poor.

I hardly ever met any American backpackers in Thailand. Most have come from Britain, Germany and Australia.

Most can't afford to travel. Most are trapped in trying to live an upper class lifestyle that everyone says is middle class.

Americans actually travel quite a bit. Millions of American's travel by car - some 80% of vacations are done by car. Why? America is large and diverse. New York to Los Angeles is about 1,000 miles farther than Paris to Moscow. There are a ton of local cultures, destinations, climates and varied scenery within American itself

The US is large and geographically diverse, but there's no comparing its human diversity with Europe's.

The first thing I noticed after an overseas trip was a #400-500 man, almost as soon as I had entered the terminal. That's just one extreme example, but Americans really are fat.

Don't be rude, we all knew he was gone. It was impossible to miss, what with all his posting about ladyboys.

That's because traveling outside of the US means you spent a lot of money to voluntarily be in a worse part of the planet. It's not just that we don't care, we actively think it's stupid and a waste of time and money.

Go 'merica!
