| FRANCE |
The travel search site Skyscanner.com surveyed its users about where the locals never smile and people are particularly unfriendly, and the nation with the most votes for rudest locals was…
Wait for it…
France (félicitations, mes amis!), followed by Russia. The survey received over 1,200 responses, 65 percent from the UK and Ireland, plus elsewhere in Europe, North America and Australia.
The World's Rudest Nations for Travelers
1. France
2. Russia
3. United Kingdom
4. Germany
5. Other
Rounding out the top five rudest countries were the U.K., Germany and “Other” (those Others are the worst, don’t you think?). The U.S. placed 7th, behind China.
Some of the perceived rudeness may be attributable to cultural differences rather than anything intentional. For example, says Tatiana Danilova, Skyscanner’s Russian Market Manager, “the Russian language is not as polite as English, so when Russians translate directly from Russian to English, it can sound rude to an English speaker even if they don’t mean it to.”
I bet it if a research like this is done in Africa I can't just reason out the catogory Nigeria will be placed, may beb the "Dramatised Country where Billions are gulp overnight" lol.
