‘Stay away, it's for your own good': Locals discuss top 28 'unwritten rules' in their country that tourists always break

‘Stay away, it's for your own good': Locals discuss top 28 'unwritten rules' in their country that tourists always break

Too often, I've seen tourists ignore big blatant signs in their own native language that read, ‘Do not enter'. But enter, they do. Sometimes they get lucky, while other times, not so much. And I'm not speaking from a ‘high and mighty’ place, because I myself have ignored instructions and had to pay the price. One person posted a question to r/askreddit, asking which unwritten rules tourists always seem to ignore when they are on vacation abroad. There is a whole variety of answers from people l…

'I saw people trying to take selfies with a bear': 15+ Tourists who were wildly unprepared for the national parks they were visiting

You may be smarter than a bear, but there's no way you're stronger or faster! And if you think you could take on a charging bear, then the bear is also smarter than you. The USA is full of gorgeous national parks . No two are alike, and they vary greatly from state to state. Some are great for hiking and exploring mountains, while others, like Yellowstone, have hot springs and natural beauty that draw in lots of admirers. You'd think visitors would want to read up on park information, or check…

'There was one line [guests] should never cross': Hotel guests discover they won't be served after acting entitled toward customer service reps

This person learned an interesting tip from about getting what you want as a guest. As u/badgermann writes, their wife worked at the “central switchboard for a group of resort hotels in a tourist area." While you're vacationing, you want everything to run smoothly. Instead of dealing with the humdrum of daily life, all you really want is to be sprawled out on the beach with a good book and no responsibilities whatsoever. However, if you have traveled on vacation even a single time, you know tha…

Americans Discuss What to Avoid When Visiting the United States

Americans, if someone was planning to travel abroad to the United States, what advice would you give them? If it were me, I'd recommend that they avoid tourist traps completely. If they were planning to stay in New York, they should avoid Times Square at all costs. It's expensive, overcrowded, and interesting for all of two minutes. Also, don't go to Ohio . That being said, I'm not a tour guide. I can speak for where I've lived and that’s only three states. I don't know the first thing about Fl…

Selfies At Auschwitz: Twitter Users Rally Against Disrespectful Concentration Camp Visitor

People may have been taking selfies 20 years ago (Myspace angles, anyone?) but they definitely weren't taken the same way they are now, whether we're talking about frequency, ease, or more about confidence levels. And while it's nice to get an ego boost on Instagram every now and again, it often seems as though selfies have become compulsive. People will literally take them everywhere, and sometimes, it's an actual problem. Just this past weekend, Twitter user @MariaRMGBNews provided the bird a…

International Internet Users Share the Most Obvious Signs a Person is American

Back in the mid-aughts, I was part of an exchange program that took a few lucky Americans on a trip to Japan for a few incredible weeks. It was a little nerve-wracking to think about traveling in a country where I couldn't read or speak the language, but to my surprise, it was incredibly easy to get around, and to ask for help (in English) with my timid voice. It seemed most people could speak English, and were excited to learn about where I was from in America. While there was anti-Bush graffi…
