Having not travelled the world extensively to judge each country then I have to say until proven otherwise I like them all , its the people within who can be the problem and that's a different question . | |

On another thread I already admitted to really not liking.
China
Iran
North Korea
The last 2 for their human rights abuses, Iran for terrorism as well.
China for human rights, breaking international laws, lack of respect for other country's patents, intellectual rights, import regulations, drug running, fake goods and killing a lot of animals for bizzare reasons mostly to do with health. | | | |

Dutch people for me.
Travelled a lot with work & have learnt not to stereotype people but the majority of Dutch people are arrogant.
I wasn’t overly keen on Russians either.
Indian people I have worked with have been some of the nicest (& smartest) I have met. |  | | |

I haven't met many Russians but they have a reputation for being moody, arrogant and rude, and those I met certainly fitted that stereotype.
And there is that joke that no-one has ever seen a Russian smile. |  | | |

...and the Russians that I have met have totally disproved the stereotype, being really friendly and jovial.
It’s almost as if you can’t judge people on their nationality. |  |

I would only comment on where I have been. Not been anywhere where I did not meet people
I liked. Overall my least favourite place in China followed by Israel which is a seriously messed up place though met plenty of lovely people there. Craziest was Ukraine. Most disappointed with Brazil and most surprised by Ethiopia and Colombia . Would say US, Germany, Thailand, Canada and South Africa and those I liked best,’in different ways and for differing reasons. | | | |

"you can’t judge people on their nationality."
Well said, and true enough, Swerve, but most of us fall into the trap of doing just that, and more often than we'd like to think. | | | |

Have to say, Prof, I'm more than a little envious of your globe-trotting history.
I haven't managed to get beyond Europe's borders yet, but there's time enough. | | | |

I didn't like the Northern French but in the south they were great. I haven't met an American I didn't like. The Turks and the Greeks were brilliant, the Spanish too. Now Russia, I didn't speak to many Muscovites because of the language barrier but we met one in a bar who was a lovely fella, spoke good english and was very interested in Wales, he'd never been to the UK. The receptionist in the hotel was really nice too, even the armed guard at the entrance was tidy.
Only in the North of France, just outside Paris did I meet several people who were really quite obnoxious. Even being Welsh didn't help!
I don't dislike any country per se, except in a sporting sense, England of course. | |

One of the great perks of the job and have turned down trips to Argentina,
India, Australia and NZ as could not fit around family life. Of course not been anywhere this year! Mostly it’s conferences and meetings, but we have had/ have projects in Ethiopia,
Thailand and Philippines. Best thing is with locals you see things a bit differently (and get much better food). Spending time looking at temples with my colleague in Thailand was a lovely experience even for an atheist. Working in Africa ( a small amount In Malawi as well as Ethiopia) changes your outlook. | | | |

We always try to get off the beaten track and find the hidden gems, there are usually plenty. We do all the main tourist things too mind. I'm not religious but when in Barcelona had to see the Sagrada familia...and the Nou Camp of course!
Africa I would love to get to but which part, there is so much. I too am a tad jealous of your travels. | |

Sagrada Familia is an amazing sight Cat. I have a very faded Gaudi mug from going there and the Camp Nou in about 1996. Coach and camping with my wife (well girlfriend then). It’s a great privilege to see so many places, though too often I get to see far too little of the places I visit.
Off the beaten track for me includes chicken farms and slaughterhouses of the world! | | | |

My brother travelled extensively and he really liked Malawi, said the people were very generous and down to earth, he didn’t like South Africa, wasn’t keen on India as they gave the women he was traveling with a early difficult time and he didn’t like the Israelis he met.
I find most people are tidy wherever you go, but there’s always 1 or 2.New Zealander’s are great except for when it comes to rugby when they become pretty obnoxious, the Dutch can also be arrogant. My experience of the French is generally positive once they know you are Welsh. I also found Malaysian’s, Cuban’s, Americans and Canadian’s really tidy. | | | |
