A friend (who had lived in Japan and learned the language) told me that he overheard a group of Japanese tourists in Italy who were trying to take a picture of each other in front of a fountain and one said to another, "Try to get some foreigners in the picture. It'll make it look more exotic!"

(Not even realizing that when they travel outside Japan, THEY are the foreigners).
My dad got that once in Isreal however he was on the receiving end, an old lady pushed by him in the bank saying in hebrew "I'm not waiting for a D--m tourist" only to be told off in Hebew as my dad is fleuent having lived in isreal for 7 years in his youth.
