It seemed to me they did not like foreigners.

@curiosi Sad but maybe true. I'm Asian and can't change that.

@IHTBY I am American, born here. My family was from Italy. When I was there they recognized me as being Italian as I looked just like them yet they also recognized me as being American and kept telling me to go home.

@MarmeeMarch You're adorable 😆

Your experience in three non-english countries is suprise at people not instantly responding to you speaking english to them? 🤨
EuphoricTurtle · 41-45, M
@IHTBY There are subtleties. What I can tell you is that I'm Portuguese and I would probably not instantly respond to someone who I felt assumed I should speak english.

That being said, I'm sorry you had a hard time.

@Spoiledbrat you always make me smile. I’m glad we are friends. You matter to me. 🖤🤗
Now we have a Spanish feed but I don't speak the language🤔
@Spoiledbrat I hope you are having a really nice night. Be safe and be well.
Thank you. It's good to see you. I haven't seen you in awhile. 🙂@JustGoneNow
@Spoiledbrat 🖤🤗
I’d speak very emotional Icelandic. It sounds like we are cursing you out when we are asking about the weather. lol

So, the same set of people initially ignored you when you spoke English, and then instantly started using English when you spoke Malay?
IHTBY · 46-50, F
@Northwest Some of them were the same people.

It was a few different shops and I tried entering again the next day and spoke in Malay.

They do the same thing in Montreal.
DunningKruger · 61-69, M
They may have thought you were American.
IHTBY · 46-50, F
@DunningKruger I don't even have an American accent.
