Crazy India
India is a country full of surprises. It is a truly shocking experience for someone, who has never been to any less developed country than those in Central Europe. Just few first impressions:
Many people are poor, but they don't try to steal anything from you by pocket-picking. Instead of that they try to sell you things for ridiculous prices.
Being white = being a rich stranger and also a target of common interest. Everyone tries to sell you something or just stares at you. Not to buy anything, that requires a really strong will...
Traffic is an impressive mixture of everything that moves in certain way certain direction. There are no traffic lanes, there are just spaces, where you either fit into or not. Cars don't necesarilly have to have all wheels or for example doors, but there is one thing you simply need: loud horn.
Food... uhmm... well... trying to be culturally sensitive, but... This is just something awful... Everything is spicy or seasoned with some whatever... I think that Indians recognize more than the usual 4 types of taste...
