Steer ClearWhen spotting another American in a foreign country, your first instinct is usually the correct one: run in the opposite direction. So, approach your fellow American at the iconic old bridge at dusk. It turns out this particular observation point is not the hidden gem the internet told you it was. Your fellow American will bring up a brand of hot sauce which is Mexican, but represents the very best of our national cuisine. Your fellow American wishes you “safe travels,” which hits as sincere.
