| Taxi mafia | | |

 |  on July 15, 2006 |
In many countries the taxi mafia is active, If they see a tourist they see the dollars and try to cheat you. So don't be naiv, Get a feeling for the right price by asking other people. Always ask for the price before you get off. Always look what the driver does if he uses the taxameter. In Hungary they have sometimes a manipulated taxameter. If you drive by day be sure that he doesn't use the night tarif. Pay and try to do better next time Use public transport. |

| Do not give money to children | | |

| on July 22, 2006 |
Sometimes it is hard to see the poor children and not give them money. But you don't really help them if you give them money. Then you have also a more relaxed trip. If you start to give money they tell each other and you will be followed .. Be friendly by saying no. If you really want to help these people give some money to organisations when you are at home. |

| Beware of Vis-A-Vis Tour | | |
| | ||
 on September 10, 2008 |
The Armenian travel agency "Vis-A-Vis Tour" use my private shots here: http://www.visavistour.com/eng without my authorization. All E-Mails from me are without reply. A company they use stolen shots from a simple German tourist can not be serious. Update: The shots are now removed (after many many mails). |
