Did you have any preconception about a certain country that has changed when you have visited it?

Actually, it happened to me. Before I went to Paris, I heard that they are very nationalistic and never speak English, only answering in French, and that's how I was prejudiced. But when I went, everyone was very helpful and I have never experienced anything like this.

I thought everyone in Italy spoke perfect English. I also thought your people were so cool and a little egotistical. However, when I went there, I saw that the people are actually very helpful. Not egotistical. He was like one of us. They helped with everything. When we got lost, they took us to our hotel. This was the moment when my prejudice was broken.

Fascinating! I recently heard that Italy is planning to ban speaking English in public.

So that would be pretty weird, but most Italians aren't very good at English anyway. There are too many tourists in Italy. And they're usually the ones who speak English.

Interesting. I am curious to find about the experiences the others have had.
