It seems to me that, if you’re traveling abroad, you should check on conditions and requirements, right? Do you need a visa, or a passport expiration date well beyond your stay? What is the currency conversion? Do you tip or not? What are the important cultural and historical sites? What are the rudiments of language requirements (donde established el bano?).
Why be unprepared and, worse, whine on social media that prices are so expensive
given the weakness of your own country’s currency?! Do you expect that we open up a cultural exhibit when it’s normally closed to accommodate your schedule? Or waive the visa requirement? Or forgive you for not tipping because you don’t do so at “home”?
It’s not our fault that your currency is weak. That’s the fault of your government, the one for which you and/or your fellow citizens voted. Sorry, but here’s the bill….
