Rick Steves Quotes About Country

Quotes about: Country

• I would like travelers, especially American travelers, to travel in a way that broadens their perspective, because I think Americans tend to be some of the most ethnocentric people on the planet.

You don't find ugly Belgians or ugly Bulgarians, they're just too small to think the world is their norm.
