Then again it could just be that the places I've gone to have been more adventurous European destinations and less adventurous for North Americans. But even some well-travelled Americans I know are pretty annoying.
Maybe it's my own (bad) temperament but I find Europeans in general much easier to get along with than Americans. The thought of having to deal with Californians every day is what kept me from moving to California. It's too spoiled and image-conscious. Of course, Vancouver is 2/3 of the way there and getting worse.
I have the opposite problem with Quebec, which is that I get along with the people but not the climate. I think Montreal and Quebec City should swap places with Los Angeles and San Francisco.
