Well, to be fair Europeans can drive hours and pass through several DIFFERENT countries. Americans can start and end hours and hours of driving JUST IN Texas.

Ever since I did a semester abroad in college, I concluded that Every. Single. College. Graduate. should be required, as a part of their degree, to spend at least 6 months studying in a country which is not adjacent to the United States.

Gina is so funny she’s started my day laughing Thank You

I was surprised when an american told me he has never been on a plane.

America's so vast and each state is practically a different country with its own customs, quirks, and cuisine; so I guess that's one reason why many Americans don't travel. Another reason is that it must be bloody expensive for them to fund an international trip not to Canada or Mexico. In Europe we kind of take almost take travelling to another country for granted because it's so easy and fairly affordable. Depending on where you are, if you drove for an hour, you could be in another country. I think in some parts of the US, if you drove for an hour you'd still be in the same neighbourhood. 😅

cruise ship 🚢 🤣🤣buying crap of the boat then back on again🤣😂😂

Look, I was born and raised on the East Coast and I just spent a week in northern California earlier this month...that's enough foreign country for me! 😂

She is so fucking funny 😂

She's not wrong. But it's too expensive for most Americans.

I love her comedy. She's so silly!

America's huge and very diverse, you can see all you need right here. In Europe everything is close to ride a train to, you'd better have a passport

I hate cruises. If you want to feel better about yourself, go on one.

The cruise resonated with me. It is not seeing a country. It is going to designated shops from which the cruise line gets kick backs. Many of the comments about Gina not getting this are from Americans. I am Canadian and have been to the US many times and lived there one summer. Gina is correct. Americans know very little about anyone else in the world. To some extent, foodie culture and social media where you can see trends worldwide in an instant have helped, but that can never replace the experience and knowledge gained from travelling. On my first cruise, I was at a dining table with a group of Americans. One asked me if we celebrate the 4th of July in Canada? Why would we celebrate American Independence Day in Canada???? Another asked me if we celebrate Christmas. WTF? The scary thing is that these people were educators (one was a College Prof and a police) and an engineer at a major US oil company. I had to do my best not to burst out in laughter. I saw almost nothing of a country when I went on a few excursions on cruises. In Mexico, we had to drive to our destination with window blinds down allegedly for , so did not see anything on a 4-5 hour round trip drive. so I never went on a cruise after that. In Jamaica, they made it sound like if you wondered off from their designated stores that you would be instantly killed. Some American tourist said that Jamaicans were not "civilized". That was my first and last cruise. Many Canadians do not travel in Canada because it is a lot cheaper to fly to a US, the Caribbean or Europe even with the exchange rate. Some leave through Buffalo or Detroit because it is cheaper to fly internationally from there vs. any Canadian airport. There is far more competition in US Aviation than the 3 international carriers we have in Canada. Yet, Canadians travel internationally more than Americans. On a bus trip of a European country a few years ago. Usually people do the optional tours to immerse themselves in the culture. We were the only non-Americans on the tour. All most of the Americans wanted to do was sit at a pool, go to a beach, and drink. We also ended up being tacked on to the other tour with mainly Canadians. None of the Americans who came on these excursions were born in the USA. They really did not seem to care about the culture, other than when it came to booze. My American worked at a Summer Olympics on year. When asked if they got autographs or photos with athletes, their response was: "I was in the village with African athletes, no Americans, so I didn't bother". A lot of people are talking about travel being too expensive, yet they own multiple $40k +trucks, SUVs, spends thousands of dollars on concerts and sporting events and eat out everyday. If you want to save your money to travel, you can. The only thing I will say in defence of Americans is that most do not get the time off from work that Europeans, Asians and Australians get off. It is similar for most Canadians. Therefore, if you only have 2 weeks of vacay days, time is limited and there is little jet lag recovery time.

Funny fact....Spain is the 2nd most visited country in the world. I have not EVER heard of someone vacationing in Spain while living my full 53yrs in USA. This country we believe that Spain is a 3rd world country. We are taught this and we believe it in our mindset. But my friends wife went to spain last year and she was like...its not at all what I thought. The people seem high class....way more high class than when I went to UK. She was shocked and was telling me how weird Americans really are.

I don't have a passport the only place I've been outside of USA was the Bahamas and i didn't need a passport.

Americans travel is just they don't really travel abroad. Look at the american airports. Lots of people.

I don't travel because the world is NOW so crazy it's scary!

Europeans can take a road trip and visit several countries. By car, we can only visit Canada or if you have a death wish, Mexico( up until a few years ago we didn't need a passport to visit either country). To visit anywhere else requires an expensive international flight. My wife and I did a tour of Europe back in 2011 and with airfare it cost $10,000.00 Most Americans can't afford that. And to be honest, we have anything you can think of right here in the USA.

Americans 🇺🇲 usually don't have the time ⌚ or 💵 to travel 🧳 😔 It's expensive to go over seas. It is so much easier and cheaper to travel through Europe if you're a European.

Because it's expensive as shit

🤣 yet I run into Americans every time I travel!

So right about the cruise 😅 we went to the Bahamas, but I don’t consider that I’ve really ever been to Bahamas

Most Americans cannot afford to travel overseas because we don’t have living wages or paid time off guaranteed by laws and since it is very far to travel to Europe, Africa, or Asia, many Americans simple cannot afford to miss work and pay for a trip that will cost thousands of dollars. She’s a bit out of touch with that joke.

A lot of people who judge Americans for this don’t realize or acknowledge how diverse and huge the United States is in itself to travel.

People keep saying Eurppe is small you can visit another country by travelling a small distance which is fair criticism. But I would also argue we travel beyond Europe as well. Might have one Euro holiday a year and then a couple more outside the Eurozone per year too. So again long distance travel outside the zone, which is still unlike Americans who if you travel travel to Mexico, Canada or take cruises in the Carribean.

60 mph yea I 'll say that if a different lever of thuggery, that must be like an video game Boss Fight

Here I was born, and here I will stay. 🇺🇸 Isn't for everybody, so travel on. Best hopes for You.

Except America is like 50 different countries all in one, bc every time I pass into a different state it's a whole new set of laws, cultures and customs, and the scenery and weather can change in less than 100 miles, so why travel overseas?

🤣🤣🤣🤣

You can see how the hands raise keeps getting fewer and fewer .

I went to Europe when I was 24 & was underwhelmed by what I saw. At the time I was living in NYC & found London to be boring as hell by comparison. The best trip I ever took was to Hawaii. No passport needed. Had a ball...

😂😂😂😂😂

Why would we need one?

3:55 no that, my friends, is highway robbery

We don't have passports because we can't afford to travel.

American is a great country to live, Especially when you have the freedom to criticize the government and not get killed. Democracy is great people!! ❤️ 🇺🇸

On the internet, pretty much everybody outside of the US is anti-American, so I have no reason to show interest in foreign cultures. 🤷‍♂

Nigerians are one of the richest people in the world

With so much land in the USA it's no wonder we don't travel. We have several languages and multiple dialects. Every kind of landscape. Why would we want to leave?

“With stamps in them….that don’t say Mexico.” 😅😅😅 Ma’am, Hawaii doesn’t require a passport! It’s part of the U.S., now your geographical knowledge gaps are showing 😉

Its a big country.. probably no need to leave if it aint your thing.

I like Gina a lot, but she seems to have missed the obvious fact that the U.S. spans an entire continent and is roughly 2.5 times the size of Europe. Americans travel plenty, we just literally don't have to leave our country to see vastly different topography and experience different cultures. Unless someone wants to argue that those of us up here in the Northeast are identical to folks living in the Midwest or the South.

This country is huge and theres a lot to see. I travel all the time, around the greatest country I could ever hope to live in ^_^ why get a passport I dont wana see any of that

Why do I need to travel ? I live in the #1, greatest country in the world. Also, If I stay, it costs me nothing to know I am right anyways.

Come to South East Asia countries and travel, folks! It's affordable, and there's plenty of culture to explore!

🤣🤣🤣
