I’m Italian and I say France. Unfortunately, many of my fellow citizens don’t think the same, because they see the French as snobbish or arrogant. I, on the other hand, appreciate them very much. I find them culturally closer compared to English-speaking peoples; they have a great cultural and cinematic output, and they really appreciate my city (Naples). Also, when I had a B&B, they were among the best tourists.
And you, what would you answer?
