Any tips would be highly appreciated. I heard that I should carry my passport with me at all times, not to leave anything valuable in the hotel and to bring my own water. Other people tell me that in Europe theres is a high anti-american spirit. Should I speak only Spanish over there. I need frienly suggestion that wouls make my stay pleasant

Please don't bring your own water! The tap water is just fine and even if you don't want to drink tap water the bottled water is the same as in the US. Yes, DO carry your passport...but not in your backpack. I recommend a money belt especially if you are going to be in some touristy areas. If your hotel has a hotel safe or room safe, you can leave your other valuables there, but be very careful in the hostels. Just be respectful and polite and you won't have any problems. If you visit ant churches, remember to keep your voice down....they are a place of worship after all, and not just a tourist attraction (you wouldn't believe how people behave...no respect...it's emarassing) and if something says don't touch or don't climb...then don't. Just mind your manners and keep your wits about you and you'll be fine.

There is nottin to worry about man, Europe is very peaceful.
There may be a bit of racism but it's thesame all over.
You have to take care of ur belongings though, u must be able to prove who you are at anytime.
There is no need to bring ur own water, as the water in Europe is also good.
Relax, let nottin bother ur head and just prepare for ur trip.
You're gonna love it, I'm sure.
Cheers.

u dont need to bring ur own water to europe, and there is some anti- american spirit, but people there will treat u well if u attempt to speak their own language. even simple frases like bonjour while in france, make a difference because people wont think ur stuck up

So, you are thinking that to avoid potential confrontation or embarrassment, you are going to pose as a Mexican citizen?
Do I understand you correctly?
