Unwrapped travel

Budding sex-tourists should bear in mind that many of the sex-workers found in brothels and freelancing in bars in all the countries covered on Travelfish have been trafficked often under very dubious circumstances, from other countries. Working conditions are mostly appalling, with many sex-workers being under-age and/or working against their will. HIV and other STDs are particularly high in these countries. Always use protection. If you are going to take someone back to your hotel or guesthouse always verify the age of the other party involved and make sure they check in with reception — normally with an ID card of some type. This should be done for your protection as well as theirs.
