After every visit to Brazil and Barcelona, I would be swamped with requests for money to help with their various and creative problems. With each request, I had to block their number. Now I do not give out my WhatsApp number when I travel. It seems as if some things are the same the world over 😀. The traditional plea used to be that the family buffalo had died! I have used a guide from Siam Roads, Mac, who is very good. He was clearly short of money, broken down trainers, etc, but would not let me buy him a new pair! A different approach, and I really admired him. I gave him a good tip, but that was a struggle, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
