This is an add-on from my previous post dealing with my surprise to the sincerity of our rickshaw driver:
It was to my surprise because it seems everyone here who approaches you and tries to be helpful "Yes sir, what can I find for you?" "Where are you going, sir?" "What do you need, sir?" is just trying to turn a dime and is taking advantage of our American (perceived)ignorance; such that when a person such as this driver is actually acting out of sincerity, you feel bad for assuming the worst. This is something I have noticed in all places of my travel, and is just a frustrating part of foreign travel I think that I cannot quite get over, or moreover have a solution for.
