Depends how far afield you are going, but where we like traveling (HKT, DPS, SEZ, MRU, MLE is a short list) Americans are relatively rare, so I felt we were viewed as an exotic species.

Granted, since me and Mrs. Pokeable are of Asian descent, everyone initially asks us if we are Korean, Japanese, Chinese, etc. :p

No need to, as long as you don't wear white sneakers, chew gum, talk loudly and what are the other American stereotypes again....:( :rolleyes:

Add drinking beer, and that sounds like Aussies to me.
