I went to Laos, decades ago. Wow, was that an interesting trip. The official exchange rate was a fraction of the black market rate, so after asking around I went to the market. At the gold shop, they also traded for USD.
It wasn't even a hush hush thing, it seemed pretty open.
I remember that they weren't thrilled with my 20 dollar bills. They wanted 50 or 100 dollar bills. And they HAD to be nice and clean.
