Can you imagine the hell you'd get in if you tried this in america?
- latchkey 5y agoThat was the truly entertaining bit. Tons of scammers hanging around pushing some sort of service. Rightly so, a lot of people get frustrated or uncomfortable at border crossings. I've done VN/Cambodia/Laos border crossings enough times that it doesn't bother me. I understand the game now. It really is just part of the way things are done. I kind of wish it was that way in the US. Even paying off corrupt cops right on the street in Vietnam. Far better than getting a ticket and going to court.
