A5: Maybe because I'm a woman. I can't think of any examples off the top of my head but I do think I keep certain safety precautions in mind when I'm traveling or wandering by myself. #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A3: It has only been validated - love and hospitality seem to be global and universal. Everyone is there to help you when you need it #CultureTrav

A4. Loud, pushy, demanding, know-it-alls who get upset when something isn't as they "expected it to be". In some cases, I saw this first-hand. Sadly, too often, people mentioned that I wasn't like the stereotype they've heard of or perceived. But, not always. #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5: No because I usually only travel with people who share my values and interests. #culturetrav

#culturetrav A4: thing is, when I travel, I'm never mistaken for anything other than what I am. I don't even need to open my mouth, tho obviously when I do it's very much confirmed!

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A4: I'm in the US, so it's a huge spectrum of ideas, politics, violence, etc. I'm in the #SF #BayArea, so of course other Americans make assumptions. Not everyone here is rich, does drugs, surfs, is ultra liberal, etc. #CultureTrav

replying to @CourseCharted @CourseCharted We have LOVED each of our visits to the US! The people have always been so incredible and there is so much diversity! We were just in Boston and I think it's one of my favorite cities ever, would love to see Chicago! #CultureTrav

#culturetrav A5: I've been to Italy three times and can't get on with it at all. Conversely I love the city of Sheffield in the UK which several ppl I've met online or while travelling have hated.

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5: Not that I've traveled with, but I do have a friend who absolutely hated Paris, which I thought was impossible. And I've found I'm lukewarm on places others really seem to love (Rome, Toronto). #CultureTrav
