Americans complaining about having to walk in European cities


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Thoughts? First that viral video about Paris and now this.

 

Should old, beautiful european places rebuild themselves so the car-dependent americans aren't forced to walk during their holidays? 

 

The Amalfi Coast would look so lovely like this, I think:

I mean doesnt she research the place and logistics before arranging a trip? Thats what she gets for basing her travel itinerary solely on instagram posts. 

 

I didnt see the paris video, can you share?

She clearly is attacking the other vloggers for not letting her know that the logistics are super messy

But all travel vloggers are the same. Most turistic spots are horrible for similar reasons

Nah, Europeans have this right. Americans wouldn't be so fat if we were not just able, but forced to walk everywhere. I honestly love walking. I love driving, too, but not within cities. One of my biggest complaints about America is how most places aren't walkable at all. 

 

This girl is so spoiled, in general. I can't stand people like this. 

Then why are the British so fat? 
 

Americans are lazy. It seems to be a common cultural trait. If Americans cannot accept other countries values or way of life. Don’t come.

It's a nightmare seeing Mexican cities (mainly up North) trying to imitate the hell-ish car-dependant cities of USA. A nightmare!

I was once in an airport lounge in Atlanta, it was soooo crowded and full, but then I went upstairs and it was completely empty there. I was like HUH? And then I heard some Americans say: “oh they don’t have an elevator, let’s not go up” 🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦 Mental issues, in my opinion. 
 

Also, an observation from living in Amsterdam, American tourists ALWAYS wear hiking clothes :ahh:They are going on a “hike” in the city center :toofunny2:

 

“Yeah, babe, 20 minutes walking is like, you know, like, A LOT… can we grab an uber? Oh and let’s get some bottled water on the way to stay hydrated” :rip:

Is it asking too much that while visiting centuries old cities you're able to enjoy the comodities of the 21st century?  Silly backward Europeans :rockon:

Because we're not used to it in America

I don't blame her. Europe isn't a 1st world country and lack infrastructure and tech. USA the best country

You are so right about Europe not being a first-world country:rip:

the title is super miss leading but anyway. I love a good murican lashing but i dont think this case warrants one. she's just a bit frustrated with her lack of planning. she wasn't rude or disrespectful towards anyone, she was just venting about how the beautiful pictures don't show the behind the scenes. and it happens to everyone, sometimes you have a perfectly planned trip and something comes up :michael:

“Americans” being a couple dumb influencers on TikTok :skull: Very odd how much European ATRLers generalize a country of over 300 million people. 
 

I live in an American city and walk more per day than the average European. Would never want to live in that dusty continent, it’s hasbeen’d.

"Dusty", seriously? What about that Cheeto Dusty president of yours?

Education, democracy, gun laws, freedom of speech - everything is above the US at the moment. 

 

I'll use the expression "touch the grass" and change it to "feel the freedom in Europe"

South America? Brazil? The country that’s bigger than the continent of Australia? The one with one of the highest crime rates?

 

Also we were not doing continental wars. Europe is not a continent either. We were just comparing a few places, but don’t ******* tell me USA>Europe :toofunny2:
