People have been saying to pretend you're Canadian while abroad for as long as I can remember, but no one really cares if you're an American or not. And if they do, fuck it. You don't need to worry about some random person's opinion.

Source: I'm an American, and I lived in Europe. No one gave a shit about my nationality.

As for actual advice, learn how to say hello, please, thank you and other common greetings in the languages of the places you're visiting. Be sure to get a handle on the currency conversion rates before you go. And maybe look into getting a debit card that has no foreign transaction and ATM fees.
