Friggen asshole and very pushy. The rest was amazing.

Sounds a bit trippy! heh
I wonder though, most experiences I am hearing so far, have to
do with the touristy areas, and of course, those are the spots
that will draw the pushiest and most aggressive of their people.
Does anyone have experience with being more in with the locals?
I imagine we cannot judge their people as a whole by the people
we would meet around the touristy areas. It is a 3rd world
country with about 34% of people living in poverty. But, they
may be good people in general once you get to know them.
But then again, maybe not. I don't know.
Keep the input coming GFY. Thanks!
I appreciate hearing all opinions and experiences, good or bad.
