Translation of en gros

I mean every thief becomes excited if he sees such a stupid tourist as I was. Some little children, I think that they were from xyz origin, came to me and offered me a newspaper and asked for money.
She found it very unromantic that a man would not declare friendship to a woman. Anyway, after an hour or so they got off at a town called Chetumal which was on the border with Belize, where they lived.
Luckily the town was small and the hotel manager could call all taxi stations. They checked it through their radios and an hour later the driver was back with our bags. He did not want to be paid extra, but I insisted.
