Honestly, everyone in America should experience America like World Cup fans have. Go to places you haven't been, eat the local food, have a blast. This country is huge and most people barely ever see any of it.

I think what people have been reacting against is the smugness of some Americans who've been acting like every European arriving has never seen the modern world. The US is brilliant, but not because it's better than the rest of the world.

Also the best way to experience it is to drive because seriously if you haven't you do not understand just how gigantic, diverse, and varied the place you live in is.

Putting in an upvote - if one is able - for bike touring to see the country. Even more contact with the terrain and the ability to eat as much as you please!

Flying across this country always bends my brain too. There is so much of so many different beauties. But driving it really really makes you feel the size. - Spend an hour or two off of insterstates for every day spent on them. - Make some time to go where people LIVE, not just tourist spots.
