    When I was about 16, I was traveling to the US. I still vividly remember immigration asking me if rollercoasters existed in Europe.

    Americans also love asking where you’re from, and there’s only 2 responses:

    1. Oh yes, I actually have far relatives in Belgium!
    2. Oh yes, I’ve been in Belgium! Amsterdam is such a nice city.
