      Hello Indian here!! Avoid visiting Delhi and Agra. Start from Kerala (South India) and slowly come towards the North. Keep Delhi and Agra as the last option.
      If you love beaches visit Goa and Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

    I think your arrival in India and stay at kochi, George's place -- he looked like a very kind person. And you two kind of relaxed in there. That's why this positive feeling about India. Imagine if your arrival and stay at a new country was bad u will most likely hate that country.

    One thing great about India is its diversity I will tell you about 2 songs from India,
    1) Rathipushpam from Kerala from the film Bheeshma Parvam (2021). It is a disco song.
    2) Sangtei Khuptong Di Ruk Te (2023). This is a disco song from Mizoram.
    Another thing great about India is creativity
    1) There is an ad of Cadbury India for 5 star chocolate called 5 stars everywhere and it has 55 million views.
    2) Then an Indian startup Whole Truth Foods has created an ad 70% Dark, 30% What? for real dark chocolate.
    If you see Shark Tank India you will realize what India has become in 2020s.
    India also is a country of flavors. These are fried chicken dishes in India.
    1) Chicken 65- Tamil Nadu
    2) Chicken Kabab- Bangalore
    3) Chicken Kabiraji- Kolkata
    4) Chicken Pakoda- Amritsar
    5) Rawa Chicken- Goa
    6) Chicken Kandi- Hyderabad
    However, there is only one problem in India, that it is very difficult for India to gentrify slum areas. These places have population density of 40,000 people per square km, industries like leather, textile, footwear, apparel and waste recycling. These places have poorly marked lanes, dug up sidewalks and trash. Also people have property rights in these areas so it is difficult for India to gentrify these places. It is easier for those countries to gentrify slums which run political education camps and hide lethal viruses.

    Great film with some very helpful info. But I would like to point out that while most Indians do have some English, I think it's going too far to say 'don't worry you won't have any problems.' I spent most of my trip in the south and we often had a very hard time understanding them and vice versa. They speak very quickly. This is not to be negative but just to say be relaxed and patient and accept that it might take awhile and that misunderstanding each other is definitely going to happen. 😊

    Great video, please please may I ask. I'm going to India for a month photographing people and street scenes, I understand there are touts and scammers etc but at any stage did you feel like a particular alley or street was dodgy and a guy with a few cameras shouldn't go down there?
    Thanks heaps, that was a great video 👍📷

      Hi 👋 first of all thanks so much for watching and we hope you have a great time in India. Although India is a chaotic place, we didn’t pay any extra attention to our camera gear. We are always aware of the fact we carry expensive equipment but I can say we never found ourselves in any situation like you mentioned. I have heard of these scenarios but it never was the case with us. I really don’t know why we had no issues at all, especially when you hear of such bad situations. We are not very naive people and generally like to do things ourselves so we never got scammed by anybody. Before going out we would do our research which I think helped us avoid situations that could lead us to being scammed. I hope all that makes sense….😂

      ​@@Fishing31SouthFirst of all India is not filled with scammers. Entire India is very big my suggestions to you would be don't visit old cities like Varanasi, Agra and Old Delhi those are bit chaotic. And in India your safe have trust your free to do photography and and no one will harm you. Just avoid those old cities anyways. Visit modern cities like AeroCity in Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Pune , Thane, Mumbai, Guwahati, Indore etc. You can visit Andaman and Nicobar Island and Goa and Lakshadweep for white beaches and coral reefs.

    Use Ola or Uber for cab services. And Avoid visiting old cities like Old Delhi, Agra and Varanasi. Instead visit the newly made cities like AeroCity in Delhi, Gurugram, Noida, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai, pune , Thane Etc. south India has lot to explore it has many UNESCO World Heritage sites ( Must visit) . Also you guys can visit Lakshadweep and Andaman and Nicobar to experience India's White beaches and coral reefs. If travel can be planned precisely even its easy and safe for solo Female Travellers to travel in India too beside family Travellers. And in Big tourist places Foreigners often get unwanted starred and selfie request because the people who Gomes from rural India they get surprised to see foreigners. But it's not something dangerous just basic human curiosity just avoid it. Otherwise it's great to explore India. But sad part is that just because of slight Negativity India's image today has impacted negatively while in reality India is preety safe and offers diverse Exposure to spend Amazing holidays. I hope you understood ❤️ from 🇮🇳

    Con todo el respeto al esfuerzo que han puesto en grabar este video, creo que india no es un país nada seguro para turistas, no lo digo solo por decirlo, he estado en India y me pareció qué hay tantos y tantos riesgos que sortear ahí que no vale la pena, para nada es Un turismo que se disfrute, espero que la gente deje de romanizarlo, lo digo en serio y sin ánimos de ofender a nadie, yo tengo 40 años y he viajado por muchos países y sinceramente ningún templo ni experiencia o paseo en India valen más que tú seguridad, no desearía que ningún ser querido mio y nadie viviera la experiencia de vulnerabilidad que yo sentí en un lugar que a primera vista lo venden como amigable, pero de eso no hay nada. No hay mas que un nefasto interés por sacar de ti hasta el último centavo en miles de estafas muchas de ellas que ni te das cuenta. Aparte de que son ríos de gente que leerlo o explicarlo con palabras no cuenta en lo más mínimo lo riesgoso que eso puede llegar a ser, olvídate de viajar a india y anda a gastarte tu dinero a cualquier otro lugar del mundo, ah bueno quitaría Turquía y Egipto otros estafadores de lo peor. Habiendo lugares tan bonitos no vayas a ninguno de los anteriores. Por favor no borren mi comentario.

    I would be annoyed as well if I'm frequently asked for selfies when in foreign country. As an Indian, I can tell that none of them are coming from a bad place but just curiosity towards foreigners, most of it is a colonial hangover in the sense that there is still inherent feeling amongst people that they are inferior to the white people & hence a selfie with them would be a thing to show off to other people. I would also advise that you dont need to be so nice all the time, don't be rude but just a firm no will stop the next person from asking for a selfie. If it's ruining your experience then no point in suffering from it. Just my personal opinion.

    People stare at you cuz most people here have never seen or will never see a foreigner in there entire life. Since population is huge and most people can't travel abroad and tourists get lost in the crowd. So they wanna take photos with you to show there family and friends that they met a foreigner just like people do when they see an expensive car that's hard to come by.
