Be strong. Pretty much male dominated over there.

Yip, women alone means a loose woman, they are all minded by a male family member.

Total different culture change.

I'd dress as a male if I went there again, but I'd never go again.
Hey the people are lovely the hotels are fantastic, their history and culture is amazing.

@Graciebaby I don't know on what experience you were on travel to India. But certainly you need to ackn the route and people are nice. Don't eat spicy if you can't digest 🤣😂

@Graciebaby thank u
Indian people are cool. Just be respectful cause that's universal human etiquette

Pig toilets are fun.
2 rails wiv a hole below in the ground.
Beneath are piggies, ready for you to deposit down that hole.

Public toilets on the street, fantastic!
Modern living!

@Lovelivelaugh You'll be fine, just remember where you are and it can be a bit alien to a westerner.
Bring a linen hanky and your strongest perfume(very handy), keep arms, legs and head covered.

I'm sure it will be a positive experience.

@Graciebaby absolutely! I just need to keep the rapists, the smell and the piggies in mind! And eat nothing! Lol
Graciebaby · F
@Lovelivelaugh Right on baby😉

Say hello in their language, people like that, but try to pronounce it right 'cause it loses all weight if you scramble the pronunciation.
Graciebaby · F
Eat nothing, drink nothing whilst there, oh and stay away from the lepers!
Lovelivelaugh · 36-40, F
@Graciebaby this doesn't sound so good
Graciebaby · F

Drink lots of gin and tonics. It will kill anything bad in your stomach
Graciebaby · F
@melbeacher Quinine in the tonic was developed bar British army barmen who concocted a quinine based drink to help alienate the condition of malaria.

Hence,"Indian Tonic Water". Simple.

They stare at women and more at foreigners.
