My question...Why are you so afraid of being made as an American? For 42 years I traveled with and for the US Navy and never had a problem. No matter what you do you will be made. As long as you don't act better then them you will have a fine time (The Ugly American). Contrary to popular belief. Most people of other countries like us, just not our government. Of course they don't like their government either...

I was publicly snubbed in Croatia for being "an Amerikan". I was sitting alone at a cafe in Dubrovnik drinking a coffee and reading a local paper when two twenty-somethings walked up to me and asked if I was an American. I answered truthfully...and they tossed there own coffees on me and walked away. This was in 2005. I was wearing a black leather jacket over a crew neck sweater with old levi jeans and a pair of dark leather driving shoes

"The greeks want my autograph too."
Someone whose greek is better than mine might be able to translate better.
Not bad, pretty close. Comes out to "I want a Greek signature too."
I've noticed that several posters mentioned smiling as something not to do. Why should a person avoid smiling? Is it considered rude in European countries?
