Translation of impoverishment in German

I don't remember exactly what we did there, all I remember was that there was some show including a snake and a Janasene tourist agreed to have the snake on her neck. I almost fainted just by watching.
In the end we decided to try something new, and although we are not great "fans" of South East Asia, we agreed on going to Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and if there would be enough time Hong Kong.
Instead, we gave him one of our Swiss chocolates as a gift so he would leave us alone. It worked: the boy went to the couple sitting next to us and tried to sell our Swiss chocolate for 2 Pesos.
