🔇 Thankful for noise canceling AirPods. Wouldn’t be able to sit for a beer without them, today’s tourists are particularly noisy, and certainly in line with latest reports: visitors from the US are increasing.
Sorry, folks, but most of you are just TOO DAMN LOUD!
@maique we get the same issue where I’m at here in Scotland. Our town has a seaport where big cruise ships stop so during the summer we’re inundated with Americans (which makes me feel awkward as an American working to settle here permanently).
@maique I’m often mortified to be identified as an American when I go abroad because of stuff like this. At least you just have to suffer them through the tourist season. I have to put up with these people all year round over here! 😒
@restlesslens Hahahaha. Stand tall! And, truth be told, there are so many here full time, we hear the accent all the time now.
@danalcantara Port towns do get an inordinate amount of Americans, don’t we? 🙂
You just have to pay attention when you’re close to your fellow countrymen.
I used to freely use swear words in Portuguese when abroad, surely no one would understand. And then I ended up in Luxembourg once, where 20% of the population is Portuguese. Every single one of them looked at me the first (and last) time I said “Shit”! 😅
@maique well if it’s any consolation, I’ve found that a few (or more) beers go a long way to alleviating the annoyance. Saúde!
