I shared a flat with an American, amongst other people. She was lovely. She did bring some American friends round though and they trashed the place, so boo to them! However when I have been to the US, everyone was really nice and quite interested in the fact that I was British. I think what you'll find with America is that the individual is usually a great person, far more interested in stuff than the average Brit (which is good I guess, but unnerving in a way too). The nationalism is more apparent and runs deeper than anywhere else in Europe, but that is more of an ingrained thing from childhood so judging people on that is a little harsh. On the whole, they do seem a little ignorant to the rest of the world but then that may well be a product of education and the media (plus the U.S is really rather big). To Europeans the American opinion on a lot of things seem bizarre and/or archaic, and its rampant consumerism clashes with the more socially minded environment here, but there is that thing of judging people through your eyes and standards, which is a little unfair. But in the end, you try to speak English, which is a lot better than the French do
English
