No one from France would leave a 20% tip, it would be considered outlandish and possibly even obnoxious, something only an American would do.
So many American have been doing it on French St. Martin for so long I guess they have come to expect it from Americans, but such an expectation for a Frenchman to leave such a tip would be absurd and insulting.
This may just be another case of Americans thinking the rest of the world should do things the same way they do. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Groovin.gif" alt="" />
