      As per an elaborate plan made by Missionaries and Jihadis by 2050 this last of the surviving ancient civilization will also be erased by same old 2 Cults, Christianity and Islam, who run political agenda under the garb of spirituality, God, Live, Peace et'al! From Aztecs, Mayans, Romans to Hindus all swallowed by Dynastics who created and still run these organizations known as religion and majhab.

    Man, you're the only expat that has a real working understanding of the diversity and the depth of Indian Culture.
    Thank you so much - we're tired of being portrayed just based on the culture of a single state/region; India is too diverse for that!

    I got one of those wt lifting device as well, my dad made for us 😅which I was embarrassed once a upon time to use it because it wasn't enough fashionable but after he passed away I figured I'm kinda attached to it that I carry it around whenever I move place. BTW its 30kg deadlifts squats dumbbells joined together forever 😅😅😅😅😅

    I really like your videos - truly a decent and different way of looking at things, especially since it's not looking to complain about every small thing. I get the American perspective from you and am glad I found your channel.
    Generally I find videos of other TH-camrs fake who just want followers in the name of Indians. And you're a class apart - minimalistic, to the point, open-minded and positive. I watch ONLY your videos when it comes to foreigners view on India.
    The mosquito bat made you an Honorary Indian :)

    (i) using hands to eat food to improve metabolism
    (ii) wet wash using jet spray tap instead of dry tissue paper. The former & latter above also do make sense scientifically, in terms of dinning & sanitary hygiene respectively. 🙏🙏

    Don't be too quick to dump the tp, especially when travelling or camping. The bum gun is not ubiquitous, and it's a lot trickier to direct the water from a bucket or god forbid without one, especially of you have to go for a lunch tali afterwards. Totally agree with everything else, and also I am getting much more relaxed when things don't seem to work out. You get much better at improvising quickly

    I recommend you to eat south Indian food in banana leaves, every 20km you will find a new flavour, also do watch Ramdev baba's yog on Tv in the morning nd evening.
    Try butter scotch ice cream nd other Indian sweets, pan, jalebi, drink chanch or nimbu pani during summer, Indian art rsngoli on the floor. Don't forget street food pani poori, bhel, dabheli, pav bhaji, wada pav, etc. Drink coconut nd sugarcane juice too.
    Lots of blessings from India.TC
