As a prepare to make my first trip overseas (5 weeks until my 2 month trip!!!) I keep comming across the term "Ugly American." At first I sort of resented that term but then thought about some of my travels around my own country. There definently are some less than noble characters roaming around. Anyway, what is this "ugly American" like overseas? 'Cuz that is the last person I want to be. I honestly don't think I fit the mold but who knows? I am fairly quite, well.....Whiskey me up and who knows....I think that I am both curtious and respectful of others customs. Is there more two this "Ugly Ameircan" tag?
