    Really depends on the skin color of the person visiting and where they are visiting in that country. A non-white visiting most West-European cities will be mostly fine, but if they go out to the country-side, things can be very different.

    I watched a documentary of an Indian boy adopted to a Swiss family who then went back to India to visit. He had a terrible time in Switzerland due to racism and nearly as an awful time in India, because he couldn’t speak the language and people thus assumed he was a Pakistani spy.

      What kind of shitty spy wouldn’t learn the language of the people he was sent to spy on?! Can’t overhear secrets if you don’t understand.

        Maybe India still has many movies playing in Switzerland? It’s suspicious when you ask where somebody is from and they mention the place they see on TV.
