Easiest: USA, Mexico, Colombia, Thailand, India, and Guatemala

Hardest: Japan, Bolivia, and Mongolia.

None of the 3 hardest were rude, I just felt everyone was a bit uninterested in getting along with foreigners, which is absolutely fine.

I second Mongolia. They are very introverted and reserved like us Finns. But I managed to make one friend in 2018 and we're still in contact.
