Personally, I identify with German and English ancestry, so -shrugs- However, I wouldn't be going with the dumb Thor concept to begin with personally. I *hate* writing characters as idiots in general. So, I'd go with trying to figure out what he logically wouldn't be used to/know about [going with an example up-thread, cars for transportation or potentially phones for communication*] and go from there.

So, to answer your question, personally it would 'foreigner' - though, frankly, I'd want to avoid the whole 'Dumb!Thor' thing as a whole, and write something that makes sense [like how actual culture shock tends to work], *and* means he actually has a brain.

And believe it or not, so do lots of other people. And most the people who are culturally insensitive enough to play the 'dumb foreigner' blur the lines when it comes to the Western European heritage to include the Nordic mythologies in theirs.
