During our visit to the Makoko floating slum in Lagos, we were offered to stop by the local bar and get a drink. Things didn't quite go as expected..

You handled it well...! Next time i'd recommend not stopping off at a brothel for a beer...that was apparent as you walked in!

As a Nigerian I'll advice you to be very careful with the kind of places you go to. And if you must go, take a local tour guide who understands the language, a lot of negotiations were being done amongst themselves right in your presence before they asked you to pay $100 and you couldn't understand them. Also for your own safety and that of jossy, kindly confirm the security situation of a particular location before venturing there, many Nigerians wouldn't go to that place you went myself inclusive. Just stay safe and enjoy your tourism.

Hey, well put man. When they asked for $100 at the end, my heart started racing. I can't imagine how I would have kept my cool if I were there in real life, but seeing the way Tommy handled it was cool. I've been in a few dodgy situations, but this had my adrenaline going. If I had stood up at the moment when Tommy did as he walked to the window, my knees would have been shaking and I would have totally gave my cool away and been ready to run or fight. He handled it so cool. I will definitely take note, but also avoid Nigerian brothels too!

@@SabbaticalTommy I wouldn't put it that way. Nigeria is actually one of the hubs of Guinness in the world. It is a little known fact. Nigeria used to be one of only three countries in the world that produced Guinness! Guinness has been produced in Nigeria for so long (decades), that it is considered a local drink. Nigeria is actually the 2nd largest market for Guinness, bigger than the Irish market. I kid you not. The love affair with Guinness is so real, that even when Nigerians go to the US, UK, Australia or anywhere else, they still drink Guinness. It will probably become the largest Guinness market in the world soon.

My focus is always on Josey, trying to read her assessment of the situation as she's in tune culturally. Walking into a the dark hallway, you've already given them your trust, but will they earn it? For them, you are opportunity knocking, but, also, part of a scenario that could destroy their current business plan if mishandled. I don't know how deeply they think this all out when greed surfaces so readily. Your confidence saved you.

I traveled to this place in July. I'm biracial (Nigerian/Canadian). I was accompanied by my cousin, a Lagosian. This is a community full of loving folks, but they're living in survival mode. We met with a local teacher who guided us throughout the village. Had we gone without a local Makoko resident, I confidently believe things could have turned out bad for us. We had to pay 1000N to a few agitated men to leave us alone. This is a very intimate community. The amount of attention I garnered was wild. You are walking through hundreds of people's homes with every step. A surreal experience.
