Wow, this is super interesting. I can't imagine trying to charge someone extra (here in the US) because they were from here. I'm certain it does happen, though.

I'm fascinated with presumption we're all wealthy and educated. Haha, far from the truth in many cases.

At some point I think with the world-wide migration going on we will one day all feel like foreigners.

Great article.

I blame it on the business owners who decide to charge foreigners more, and eventually keep on rising prices. That creates animosity with the locals. To the point where locals begin to be priced out. This happens a lot in Latin America.

I’m sure glad you pointed this out. Definitely something to be aware of. We’re starting a deep dive into where we’re relocating to, and I’m really drilling down to Latin America. These are the small details that only you and other expats will share to make things a bit easier to decide when the time comes. Thank you.
