Serious question, I'm leaving for London tomorrow worst timing ever!

Liquidsnake · Jul 11, 2018

Do I have to tell people I am from Canada or Mexico, instead of the US?

Is there danger? Should I explain I went to protest too? Im really trying to see the beautiful castles and history around London.

BadHand · Jul 11, 2018

Say you're from Croatia.

OrdinaryPrime · Jul 11, 2018

No, tell them you're from the US and you're ashamed of our President. That's what I do when I'm there.

Deleted member 29464 · Jul 11, 2018

Just go around shouting Trump is a cunt.

No one will care, my man.Chill.LMAO.

I'm now picturing you running up to every person you meet in London shouting "I'M CANADIAN!"

PJV3 · Jul 11, 2018

Just mention Nigel Farage and go about your day.

Hollywood Duo · Jul 11, 2018

Don't say have a nice day to anyone and you'll be fine.

Cantaim · Jul 11, 2018

Tell them you are from Australia. But don't even try to do an Australian accent.

I was thinking of buying a Canadian t shirt from like Target and wearing it while there, I mean I want to go to pubs and stuff, I just don't want to get my ass kicked.

Lashley · Jul 11, 2018

Nobody will even notice you, much less care where you're from dude.

Oh god, please don't.

Just go to the pub and get a drink. If people interact with you, just have a conversation.

Cool. I'm so excited to see the Hampton court palace.I was legit worried because of what the US govt said about Americans in London.

DrewFu · Jul 11, 2018

Are you gonna watch Trump meet the queen?

Yeah, lot of nice sights in London, but make sure you keep your phone hidden etc, been a lot of muggings recently

Sew a Canadian flag on your suitcase and day trip bag

DryCreek · Jul 11, 2018

RedValkyrie · Jul 11, 2018

Sounds like the best timing ever!

Get out there and protest the clown.

feyder · Jul 11, 2018

You'll be fine :)

I was hoping to be there for a World Cup Final if the England was in it. :(

Funny thing is I wont be in France until after the World Cup literally hours after.

donkey · Jul 11, 2018

Are you wearing US flag apparel? Are you planning on being obnoxious as fuck? No? As an American living in the UK, you'll be fine.

That US state department warning is ridiculous.

Deleted member 31817 · Jul 11, 2018

Wear your favorite MAGA hat with a nice set of boot cut jeans and an American flag shirt

No My wife and I are ultra aware and cool people from Los Angeles.

You guys have kind of calmed my fears, I was really thinking we were going to be chased around. haha I know that sounds ridiculous, but the anti american sentiment seems the strongest it has even been in my lifetime.

LMAO!

You'll be fine OP. I doubt anyone will bother even asking, just say you're a tourist.

(And make sure you tip 100% on everything and clap whenever you buy something) :P

You'll be perfectly safe, nothing to worry about.

I would do this.

When you go out to eat, just remember that you don't have to tip and you don't have to applaud at the end of the meal.

Change your train ticket to Paris and be there for the WC match

They're protesting Trump, not America or Americans. Brits in general seem to love Americans, as long you we aren't obnoxious.

Just remember you're walking into a war zone. Keep your sword at the ready.

Supposed to arrive hours after the WC.

Wear a croatian shirt and flag and go to bars. You'll be very welcome.

As long as you drop the obnoxious attitude of thinking Americans are so important we actually care about them you'll be fine.

flook · Jul 11, 2018

If you lack empathy then don't leave America - otherwise you're good.

Xiaomi · Jul 11, 2018

The majority of Britons you run into are pretty chill in my experience. Just be normal, and wear your best American flag cowboy hat.

Papaya · Jul 11, 2018

I've heard from people to just say you're from California. If you're gonna lie, at least do it with an American accent without worry.

People around the world understand California hates Trump. You'll be recieved better.

Liquidsnake · Jul 11, 2018

I assure you I have no intentions of wearing anything ridiculous!

Like We are a humble couple whom you would not know where we are from.

Yep, I live five minutes from Hampton Court Palace, the streets are deadly around here.

CognitiveAtrophy · Jul 11, 2018

We're protesting the presence of that bloated tit Trump, not Americans at large. I doubt anyone will even acknowledge your existence.

Dude I cannot wait to see that place. Its what i am most looking forward too.

Excellent. You don't even have to lie, then.

A good expression for ordering food in pubs, just practice the accent.

Pub food (grub) is pretty decent in London.

Hope you enjoy your trip, original poster. Hampton Court Palace is beautiful, and given how little time you have in London I'd hesitate to suggest piling any more on especially if you'll be dealing with jet lag. Enjoy Paris too, in my opinion it's a rather more beautiful city even than London where I lived for over twenty years.

Americans have been doing that for decades.

Better hope you don't meet any actual Canadians, or it's gonna get awkward FAST.
