Fair enough. I almost certainly haven't been to half the countries you have! :) And judging by news reports, more than a few of the European governments seem to be getting very xenophobic. I count myself lucky I haven't needed to visit them. But of the countries I've been to -- some in the Schengen region, South America and Asia apart from the United States -- the one that has makes me feel the most unwelcome every time I land there is the US. Unfortunate, because the people I've met there have been among the friendliest. (Brazil and Spain still top that list.) > I don't know about you, but I tend to avoid countries with strongly xenophobic > governments, being a xeno and all.
