answer:Awww. Of course we Americans are helpful and welcoming! ^^ I think that you got lucky, though… there are some pretty nasty ones out there. I haven’t found that one group of people is more welcoming than another, but I’ve only ever been to Mexico, Spain, Belize, and America… Although, I do think that people from the southern states are generally more polite, in my experience. That whole southern charm thing.
