I thought the second-hand embarrassment of other British tourists abroad was bad, then I became French and learned French, and honestly, hearing the entitlement and arrogance of some of my compatriots I'm not sure if it isn't worse.It's a good thing not all Europeans speak French.#UK #France #British

@jmarishow does a French even act entitled abroad where nobody understands French?

@jmarisI think the "haha funny church" one is a completely normal tourist reaction.The "food is better at home" one - fine as long as locals don't hear it.The third one is quite condescending.The fourth one - haha good luck getting any food.The only part that'd offend me is calling a village large enough to have a restaurant "small" :P

@wolf480pl it's more "their churches are weird" which is kind of rude imho....Also I was in Greece so their comments about the food are really uncalled for
