    I’ve had limited experience traveling abroad, but I did spend six months in Costa Rica as an exchange student during my undergrad years. All exchange students attended a Costa Rican-led orientation, which informed us that three stereotypes follow Americans: 1. You have lots of money; 2. You do lots of drugs; and 3. If you are an American woman, you are easy. That is what I was taught about stereotypes for Americans.
