Indeed, it is a pretty exciting moment, especially since there is very little to buy within the country. Even just riding a taxi to and from town, and eating one family meal in the city is more expensive than the shipping costs for a package.
Oh that’s crazy how it works there!! How do locals afford their living there? Are they mostly wealthy or income is high enough to measure off the high living expenses?
I still don't know after two years, but I've learned this is a country full of secrets. The minimum wage here is the same as Cambodia, but yet everyone has a car, big house, A/C, and maintains a very North American lifestyle. I'm also puzzled that everyone is always at home, seemingly full of free-time and money.
I don't think we'll ever understand because most people we encounter aren't very upfront and honest with us.
Such an interesting place! Did you guys haven’t met a family local that become close friend? In Canada I find wherever we live always really down to earth people that we eat together have fun time together share life stories. Do they maybe get big government benefits every month on top of their minimum wage maybe lol
