Thanks for reading @danielownsall! I'm sorry that happened to your sister there :( It's of course important to remember that just because the island gets an exaggerated reputation, doesn't mean there aren't bad neighborhoods that we need to be aware in like everywhere else. Their culture does regard women differently then ours as well, so that's something we have to keep in mind as their country continues to grow in equality and freedom.
Oh, and here's what I brought back with me! You'll notice it's all basically food :D Spices, sauces, tea, rum, mountain coffee, and a handmade bamboo mug :)
True I agree she also said you could use the u.s. dollar but its like gold over there and they dont give you proper change when you use it. Did you notice this?
Not at all. Again, different areas will have more crime and desperation than others like anywhere else (this happened to me in Manhattan, for example). I made sure I did the math wherever I went, and usually used their currency anyway, but never had an issue. In fact, I got a much cheaper deal on a lot of things just by asking or haggling.
Oh wow thats so cool I didn't even see the image! Awesome
Ha yeah I just added it on :)
That mug is pretty snazzy.
Thanks, I like it :)
And some coffee to go with it party. Lol
:D :D of course!
