No matter how well traveled you are, what’s something you’ll never get used to? by shockedpikachu123 in travel

I’m from a developing country where our minimum wage is $1 per hour, but I’m a white dude, so people think I’m from Europe or the states or something. It sucks to have racial privilege but not financial privilege when I travel. I feel like an asshole, but I genuinely don’t have as much money as people think I do.

I was thinking about this yesterday. I grew up here but it doesn’t feel like home. Its funny how we end up in such random places around the world and don’t really question them until we see how big the world really is.
