There is such a thing as eurotrash... I have experienced it on more than one occasion. Furthermore when using gyms in the US, I have witnessed far more people wipe down their equipment after use than in any other country. Some of the most unpleasant behavior I have ever experienced has been in your very own country (St. Moritz) during New Years celebration where your fellow Europeans displayed a level of manners that I would find offensive in third-world countries. Please stop thinking that Europe is the world capital of refinement... It is simply no longer true.
