Touts Are Not All Bad
Touts Are Not All Bad
I used to think that touts were all about tricking me into spending more money than I needed to, but I have learned that they can actually save me money and get me what I need. We often land in a place and have not yet found a place to stay. It can be difficult to trek around, with our packs on, to place after place to find a bed. Touts solve this problem by surrounding me with pictures of their hotel, offers of discounted rooms and transport too. They answer all our questions and, if they can’t give us what we’re looking for, they usually know someone who can. This approach has worked for us countless times and is how we currently find ourselves in a beautiful resort on a white sand beach on Koh Pha-Ngan, Thailand for a price we thought we’d have to pay for a hut within walking distance from the beach. - Monica, A Pair of Panties and Boxers
