I dont know if I’m ready to jump into another Pakistan like environment like India just yet.
      I know what you mean it’s an easy introduction but then I’m in the lions pit when I leave.

    Hi Richy, that Nepali Heritage Hotel looks a great choice, really nice and clean. Do they chew that bettle leaf and nut there that makes all the teethe and saliva red? I was wondering if that might be why the no spitting sighn was there. When i was in Mandalay in Burma the roads and pavements where all red and pinkish with spitting that stuff. That guy trying to overcharge for the orange juice reminded me of the two prices in Thailand, tourists pay more, can't be doing with that, looks nice and quiet and chilled out there, nice vlog, thanks.

    • @ParkinsonRaw
      @ParkinsonRaw  3 місяці тому

      Hi Billy, the heritage was great and cheap. I’m not sure what it is. I thought it was what they chewed and spit in Pakistan and that was like a fruit powder sachet to give them energy.
      Yes the age old problem of dual pricing is a pain in the arse. I keep getting messages off holiday makers who just don’t understand and go away for a month with bottomless pockets. That is where our problem comes from, thanks mate.

My little tip would be go into the visa place see how long or may take as looks like you are still stsying there for abit than see if they say it may take so long or maybe pop into the India embassy as you walk pass it and see (if you can go in)
    Both hotels look good and very good prices

    They’re not robbing you. Westerners, on average, are MUCH wealthier. Locals are struggling to get by and they try to charge a perceived wealthy tourist an extra 50p. It’s not robbery, it’s trying to survive. When I’m on holiday I gladly pay the ‘tourist tax.’ And if I see they have kids, I give extra for desperately needed school fees. You’re obviously fine not paying extra, but don’t see it as robbery. If aliens came down and spilled gold, who wouldn’t add a bit to the standard cost?!,

      I have travelled more places in the world than I can remember Chad so please don’t lecture me on giving. Many places are much poorer than here in Nepal where tourism as you know is huge. I always shop, eat and support where the locals live and work. As far as westerners being MUCH wealthier I don’t know where your from but in the north of England I see many many people living to work and still struggle to feed, house and let alone to be able to spend time with there family. I’m sure we can both agree that’s no way to enjoy life which is so short. I’m also sure you’ll understand if I take this comment with a pinch of salt.
