They won't know you're American until you open your mouth. There is such a wide variety of phenotypes in SPB that people will just assume you are a Russian. Russians these days mostly have friendly excited reactions to foreigners speaking English in public.

- swozey 2y agoI'm OP you're replying to. I've lived all over Europe, mainly Germany. You can absolutely tell Americans from other crowds by clothes/style and mannerisms. Just like I can easily tell if someone is British or Australian (not that they look the same, but easy to discern which is which usually). An Italian once; "Americans walk confidently in the wrong direction."
