WELCOME TO SOMALILAND
a self proclaimed East African country with high illiteracy rate and a civil war ravaged economy!!
One US dollar is equivalent to 9000 Somaliland shillings - the currency is so devalued that people roam the markets with bundles of money in their bags.
As for the currency changers who make a living by exchanging U.S. dollars and euros for shillings on the street, wheelbarrows are often used to move piles of notes from street to street.
In this country carrying money is harder than the groceries.
