Non-Americans Are Sharing The Most “American” Things They Experienced When They Visited


3.

“Probably visiting Austin, Texas back in 2000 and asking the cab driver to take me and my friends to a store to buy a cowboy hat (hey, when in Rome…) and Steve, our cab driver for the week we were there (he gave us his cell number) took us to some shopping park and a store called ‘Hats, Boots & Guns.’ I have never been to such a brilliant, pure USA, ‘hell yeah,’ place in all my other trips to the USA from the UK. Ended up with a great black Stetson and gawked at all the guns behind the counter in amazement. If I’d had more money, I would have loved a pair of boots as they had every style imaginable.”

“Then a few days into the trip, Steve, the driver, invited us to come to his place out of town on the weekend to shoot some guns. Sadly — or luckily, I will never know — we had to fly back that weekend. He was great and friendly, as were all the people we met. USA may be a crazy, colourful and strange place to us Brits, but you sure are friendly and welcoming.”
