just to be fair (as i am british and feel picked on) plenty of members of other nationalities treat many local populations all over the world like sh*t - it is not exclusive to the british

We probably agree that every country has good and bad types. And to be even more fair--and I can give an educated guess for living among expats--British are usually very nice; quite liberal society.

Do as I say and not as I do.

We have found if you are good to them they will be good to you. Some English people we have met treat the locals like servants and that is not good. We believe in treating people as you would wish to be treated how says you all.

Hi Sugna

We are British, but live about 45kms north of Recife! Where is your home here? If you would prefer please email me or send me a private message.

ok this is getting confusing as not sure what dottys last post was in relation to.
lets just agree that regardless of nationality (or any other divisive factor), some people are decent, some are not and most fall somewhere in between - generally depending on what kind of day they are having.................................

In an ideal world ,yes!

But unfortunately people that often go to 3rd world countries happen to be the worst for exploiting people in demeaning ways and this often brings out the true character of a person and reflects in their actions whilst feeling like the Lord and Lady of the beach house or hut !!

Always be nice and kind and you will be treated well in return.Be unpleseant and you may find 10,000 missing and worse.
