Since our change in administration being an American traveling abroad has been challenging. The following ideas are an assist in making your trip successful:

• Say you are a Canadian.
• When in doubt smile, say nothing and if that doesn’t work, laugh, then walk away briskly.
• Beware of NYC t-shirts. Just because they have one on doesn’t mean they are a fellow American or speak English.
• Wear out dated sneakers. The most current versions of sneakers reveal us the most.
• If they say the T word, pretend they said dump and give directions to the closest WC .
