I find that rude & something that contributes to the notion(at times) that we are the Ugly American. I was discussing this with a rep for the Peace Corps, since when you join, they emphasize your need to do your job, & not try to change anyone...this is their country & customs, not yours. They give you extensive etiquette lessons before you travel with them. ~MaryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098209577865673818.post-47875349255085502002008-05-19T07:40:00.000-07:002008-05-19T07:40:00.000-07:00Vancouver is hosting the Winter Olympics in 2010. ...Vancouver is hosting the Winter Olympics in 2010.
