zouf_twoThey’re filming part of the bachelor in my home town. If they find love here before I do I’m going to be pissed. #thebachelor #manchester #vermont #loveme #maplesyrup

ETA:  I found this article from 2015 listing 18 other countries having Bachelor/Bachelorette versions.
Here's what 'The Bachelor' and 'The Bachelorette' look like in 18 countries

GREAT FIND @ishkabaha!  I'm a massive Flag Nerd.  

Left to right we have:

Japan
Australia
Finland
Germany
Great Britain
USA
Sweden
Switzerland
New Zealand
Canada
China

NZ and AU both had ex-Olympians on their shows.  

This is going to be so cool!  

Are we missing China Bachelor ppl? And Switzerland??

So cmiiw I think I counted 11 USA contestants and all up 10 international bach contestants?? So if it is USA verses international shouldn’t they be even in numbers and also even boys to girls??

From these photos previously posted,
the woman with red hair is representing China (between UK and Japan)

and this man in the back is holding both the German and Swiss flags, and he's possibly representing both.

The games have officially begun!!! They’re already making out on #TheBachelor Winter Games!!!

I don't think the second guy from Canada is Kevin P. I thought so at first, too, but then someone from Reddit (and I think maybe someone from here, too, not sure... ) pointed out that it was actually Benoit and I agree upon more detailed examination. He and Kevin P do look alike thought IMO - they've even joked about that themselves

It all seems like I'm having one of those dreams where nothing makes sense and just when I begin to wonder if I'm hallucinating, I see a guy sitting across from me that looks a lot like......me. He catches me weirdly looking at him and gives me a look back, so I have to speak. "Do you look like me?" I say awkwardly. He immediately laughs and says "Yes! I was just thinking that you look like me too!" in a thick French Canadian accent. My friendship with Benoit is instant. His accent reminds me of my days in Montreal and he has a laugh that makes you want to do the same.

Anyways, I'm excited about this show I would have loved it if Kevin P was on it because he's def my #1 from Jasmine's season, but Benoit is fun, too. I also really like Kevin W so I'll enjoy seeing him, too.

For the US contestants, I actually think it's a good mix and I'm glad the exact same people from BIP are not on. Josiah is hilarious, I really liked Lesley's interview with RS so I'm looking forward to seeing her, I really like Clare and am glad she's on ... and I'm curious to watch Ben and Dean on another show. Watch Dean go for the Japanese or Chinese contestants - would be funny

@TheWrongReasons yep 100 imo that’s Benoit! Btw any guesses who are making out already or is that just part of the competition

@LeapofFaith haha I have no idea ... I had thought that Kevin P might have been good with Clare or Lesley but he's not even on, so who knows. Maybe Kevin W will pair up with one of them.

@GuardianAngel or the first mod who reads this, would you kindly delete the first of my double post above? It got messed up so I tried to edit but ended up posting twice by accident. Thanks!

There are several things that I find funny with this photo - the fake snow is falling off the riser!
What great advertising for the law firm - you kind of wonder just how they decided where to put the photo op - is this paid advertising or just convenient? And it appears to have a chance of love if you are a woman, you better be blonde!

Oh wow. I was someone thinking he was Kevin P. Never realized they resembled each other.
thanks for clearing that up.

I suck at face recognition

@notarose it's not just you - I thought it was KP too and I was like his biggest stan during the season. I think it's because Benoit always wore glasses on the show. Without them, he and Benoit do look a lot alike

@TheWrongReasons done.

When I read earlier that it was Kevin P I didn't think so, or thought he must have changed,  but didn't do any digging.

Benoit makes sense. Isn't he the one with the really thick French accent? I can already see the chaos with his accent and the way he kisses.

Nice to see Kevin W. I'm glad he got invited. Not crazy about seeing more of some of those formers, but it sounds interesting and fun so far. Glad to see Trista and Ryan.

@GuardianAngel thank you!

And yes, they will probably use subtitles for him
And his kissing and general flirting style should be fun to see again Lol.
