As I plan a European vacation, which countries are best to visit if I only speak English?
I think for native English speakers it is the best to visit Britain and Ireland. In both countries they do not have any problems with the language. In most other European countries I think it is a problem. If somebody does not speak any European language like French or Italian, I think it makes very little sense to visit one of these countries. On the other hand the mentality in most European countries differs that extremely much from the Anglo-Britsh mentality that it is hard for native english speakers to understand anything of the different way of life. People just are too different and therefore most Anglo-American visitors are deeply frustrated.
