So many times these baggage handlers are rude, I once gave a man 5 dollars US he felt it was too little he wanted more and 5 dollars would be 40+ haitian dollars.

I love my country I got back home every month by the time I landed to go home to Leogane I ended up spending close to 12-15 dollars US from paying 2.00 dollars US for a cart to carry my luggage, tipping the baggage handlers and the people asking you money and sometimes you look at these people you can't help to give them some cash.

Even you give him $10.00(US), that will not be enough. Haitian in general always wants more and do not say 'Mesi'. read more >
