Rompcherry, my friend and I didn't exploit any locals. We were approached by a local offering to exploit two other locals. We clearly said, "not interested". He then negotiated for taxi service which we accepted. All along our day we were offered a variety of opportunities to purchase many different items for sale. We were offered illegal and exploitive sales opportunities as well, all of which were declined. Hope that brings some clarity.Originally Posted by rompcherry
I apologize for seeming so nasty .. I replied in private to you. I'm just a little overprotective of people in "developing" countries. Cheers
Nope, rompcherry, you're not in the least nasty. I apreciate your perspective and perhaps I'm a bit to capricious. I had such a great time meeting the people. I had lovely conversations at every turn. We tipped well and tried to be as generous as my limited travel budget allowed. All good! Glad your reading my post and helping me post in concert with this lovely community of Negril Delighters. Cheers!
