[the truth]

I think Livia calling alex a typical American is ignorant. Its a typical ignorant thing we English often say about americans and I find it embarrassing. It's nothing more than a cheap shot, the americans Ive known at least don't keep saying oh another typical English man, so in that regard they're less ignorant than us. It's also ignorant to assume all americans haven't left America. Also to put into context , America is a bigger land mass than Europe, what percentage of Europeans have been outside Europe? not a high percentage I'd expect. The main reason we travel more is because our countries are relatively tiny.
