This was a topic that I was genuinely interested in, however I thought the sound quality could have been better. I had a hard time hearing the questions being asked and some of the people had heavy accents which were hard to understand with the echo of the room. It would have helped if each person individually spoke into a mic or was closer to a mic. I had a hard time hearing this video overall and I will have to rewatch a couple of times to catch what I missed. . by the way, that Brit. is he elastic man from The Flash series?

You guys need to make a video about rude acts committed by foreigners while in the U. S. I am an interpreter who also used to work as a tour guide for foreign exchange students. I've seen it all. One guy from Turkey demanded that I speak to him in Turkish (I don't speak it) because he was too tired of speaking English that day. He spent thousands to learn English in the U. S. and left without learning anything new. His attitude pissed everyone off. The others from six different nations refused to deal with his B. S.

This was super cool, thank you I do kind of wish some people had their country beside them right when people appear because I don't know all their YouTube or social media names and some people were super quiet so I might have missed their nationality. Not that I minded watching the entire video but I felt super in the lost when people were talking so i kept having to go back and forth. Either way, really insightful, would love to see more of these collabs

Norway: I think one of the most common mistakes visitors/foreigners do in Norway is to blow their noses in public. Norwegians dont do it and its considered gross and very rude. It goes for any public space like coffee shops, public transport, in lectures, etc. Leave the room, go to the bathroom, find a quiet corner. Just dont do it around people going about their business.

Quick tip from Brazil, if you're there don't blow your nose in public, mainly in a restaurant or in a gathering where there are people eating, we find it very rude and disgusting. I know that is common in other countries, specially in Europe, but seriously don't do it, go to the bathroom.

I am originally from Brazil but have lived in the US for half of my life. I find lots of funny cultural differences. For instance, Brazilians (specially northern Brazil) do not like to say NO, so if you ask them to meet up or go out, remember this: Maybe means No and Yes means Maybe lol.

I will love to see a video talking about various side jobs, not side jobs per se, but things you can engage yourself in, in other countries as a tourist that could get you a little cash, especially when you're on vacation for a month and you just don't wanna get bored super early.

I made the mistake of tipping a normal amount in the US to someone in Scotland. It didn't occur to me until after I left how upset she looked. It took a few Europeans that I met to set me straight. It was a very hard habit to break.

In the end, the best thing to do before a trip to a new country. Is to do a quick search of cultural norms, it won't cover everything but enough as to not offend. I often do that myself, we have the technology at our fingertips.
