When I was in Paris some years ago, I was amazed how anti-foreigners it felt when it is easily top 5 international tourist destinations in the world. No public bathrooms anywhere, do the French never need to go?!
I went to the louvre and wanted to buy the 3DS museum guide software. I looked for it in the gift shop, it was available in one or two languages but not English. When I asked, the seller laughed at me like I’m an idiot, “oh we haven’t had English copies of it in months! what did you expect?”
What did you think I expected? I expected the most famous museum in the world to keep stocking something which is clearly selling out frequently!
The whole city felt like it didn’t want tourists there. It was such a strange feeling.
