Same, though its been two years since my last trip to europe (Spain specifically), it didn't feel much different than when I went as far back as 20 years ago.
About the only real difference was the EU passports, and how much easier that was for people. Wish I could get one! Would also be a great backup plan for a return of insanity here in the US, but I don't think I can qualify for any of them. Missed by one generation for citizenship by descent....
Anyway. Seems it was Japan in this case, Europe and South America (though its been maybe a decade or so since I went) dont seem any different to me. The middle east trips used to be kind of wonk, and I bet still are, but I'm not going to that area again anytime soon.
