Thanks a million for sharing your experiences. In reality no one should have to pay for friendship. Inasmuch as I can justify their actions of trying to take advantage of you because they want to make a living, I think it's a very bad thing to do.
However, I cannot stand here and judge people despite how wrong their actions can be.
I think you should be able to go around and spend the amount of money the locals actually spend and not have to pay differently because you're a foreigner.
Nevertheless, most African countries are like this. Sometimes we attract the people we attract because of the things we have to offer and it can become really frustrating.
I think you should stand your ground and let them know you won't pay more than you'll pay for things you need.
I'm glad I've inspired you. Thanks a million for still checking my content after many years. I've suffered my own issues lately and it's been difficult.
I hold you can come back and create some content after all these years
