Italy
It seems Americans can’t help showing off their knowledge of a country based on films they have seen. When an Italian man was asked about the most annoying thing that American tourists do, he said, “The hand-gesture.” If you have seen American movies about Italians, you will know this gesture – the thumb-to-forefinger motion that is so common in this kind of films. As it turns out, the gesture is not only for emphasis, but actually means “What do you want?”

Perhaps you have seen the incredible photos of people smiling with or giving a bottle to huge tigers in Thailand. Maybe you are thinking it is really amazing that they were able to train the animals. Unfortunately, for tourists to be able to interact with the incredible animals, the poor things are sedated, their paws’ tendons are clipped, and their teeth and claws are removed.
