Jakarta –
A tourist from the United States was sharply criticized after commenting on the quality of drinking water. He was even considered excessive and did not respect the countries he visited.
Being a visitor somewhere does not mean being able to go around. There are manners, ethics, and applicable rules that must be followed when coming to a new place that has never been visited before.
A tourist from the United States is a bad example when visiting a country for a vacation. This newly arrived tourist said that the quality of drinking water in his destination country was not good.
Feeling too confident he then uploaded his words on a video on social media. Unexpectedly, he was immediately bombarded with sharp comments by netizens.

A tourist named Brenna was visiting Spain at the time. Reported by The Independent (17/7/23) the area that can be identified in the video is in the city of Barcelona.
Brenna and her friends seemed to drink mineral water excessively. They also mentioned that people in Europe do not have quality or provide good mineral water to drink directly.
“We are always like this when we get mineral water because Europeans don’t have good drinking water,” Brenna said in the video.
He also mentioned that there is no drinking water tap like in the United States, his country of origin. So they have to always buy drinking water to prevent dehydration when traveling in Barcelona.

It turns out that Brenna’s upload has angered Europeans. Not a few Spaniards finally raised their voices and sharply criticized Brenna’s untrue statements.
“I don’t understand what they mean, because in Barcelona there are many wells and sources of drinking water everywhere for free. These children really can’t be left alone,” wrote one netizen.
“Water is everywhere. Many cities have provided free water taps for drinking,” continued another netizen.
“I like the behavior of this American person, he seems to provide entertainment that is free to watch,” continued another netizen.
Before Brenna, it turned out that there were also US tourists who went viral because they called them having problems with mineral water in Europe. Not much different, he also became the butt of netizens’ scathing comments.
