Avoid looking like an American tourist

People do not always know that you are an American when you visit other countries or travel abroad. You must follow these suggestions when dragged to the local crowd, not to seem like an American tourist.

1. Shoes! The end result is to wear shoes. It will be very obvious that you're American if you wear running shoes, Crocs or sneakers. In almost any athletic shoe is not used for sport makes you look like an American tourist. Only you know, generally around the world, crocodiles are used by very young children and older or gardeners. You'll laugh if you walk in the streets of Crocs. Flip-flips also are more American. To enroll in the crowd and not having the feet firmly on the view, try leather sandals or casual flats.

2. Use everything that is local. Build your wardrobe in the country when you visit. Shop at local stores and buy clothes and clothing accessories you see people living in the port. In some countries, people use a lot of tourists from jewelry position, if they have no jewelry. Scarves, like many other items used for religious and cultural reasons countries worldwide. Learn more about the culture and be ready for use and family attachments to the local environment.

3. Stay away from brand names. If you use tags from American Eagle, Nike and Adidas when traveling abroad, you can easily be recognized as an American. At least try to wear clothes with no marks or logos appearing in them.

4. To be more elegant. In general, American casual clothes that do not necessarily correspond to a trip abroad. Ditch your comfortable clothes to change some more formal clothes. Refrain from wearing clothing typical American, such as sweating, shirts, jeans, or wear camo. A written statement is not fashion shorts must be avoided by women. Again, check what type of articles in the local wear. jackets and pants are generally well accepted.

5. Do not put your baseball cap. Using a baseball cap, it is obvious that you are an American tourist, do not bring it with you. Bottled water is not a normal part of most countries, so if you have one, do not use in a place where everyone can see. small bags are better than large bags cumbersome. Sunglasses are acceptable everywhere.

6. Eat food grown locally. If you want to avoid being stereotyped as an American, you have to eat the kitchen local. And so, you can not ask whether or not the tomato sauce with potatoes (wow!). You noticed that Caesar salad is too strange taste. You may need to use chopsticks, because there will be a fork on the table!
No no talk about how the food is different. Eat in local establishments instead of chain restaurants such as McDonald's. In this way you feel to be one of the people, not as a visitor from America.

As they say, "Rome, do as the Romans do." Follow local customs and will not be so obviously as an American tourist.
