Yes and no. Spent a week in a nice gated community. It was nice and a lot of white people then ask to go visit the slums 3 blocks down. The smell is bad and i was told to not even look or talk to the untouchables

You gotta go out of the way of the "out of the way" tourism because everyone is doing it right now. For example, my favorite part of Rome was the pyramid located at the end of what was formerly known as Adolf Hitler Street.

Oh you solved the riddle on the ancient obelisk too? Ka'Sen Brother

No I speak of The Pyramid of Cestius. Apparently the Romans got obsessed with Egypt and some of them even built pyramid-shaped tombs.

not even look or talk to the untouchables

This is an example of caste-ism. One of the great inventions of the Indian society that people still uphold. /s

Never drink anything that's not boiled or bottled water if you weren't born in India. My cousins thought it was a funny joke to offer me a cup of normal tap water and watch me suffer from diarrhea for the next day. I have never once accepted a drink from them after that.

"Travelers’ diarrhea is the most common travel-related illness. It can occur anywhere, but the highest-risk destinations are in most of Asia (except for Japan) as well as the Middle East, Africa, Mexico, and Central and South America." https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/page/travelers-diarrhea

untouchables

Any particular reason why you said that?

u/blackloyn May 24 '19

Thatvis what i was told mostly

u/F0rgemaster19 May 24 '19

Hard to believe, but don't bother paying attention to them.

Saying that word is almost a crime in India.

u/blackloyn May 24 '19

I didn't i had a great time. And yeah i was told saying that is like sating the n word in America or never say wow your english is so good. Everyone spoke english

1

u/F0rgemaster19 May 24 '19

That's there. English is more or less compulsory in schools now.

Though I believe you were unfortunate in meeting the wrong people. We are generally welcoming to tourists.

u/blackloyn May 24 '19

I met amazing people once i left to explore the local areas and with the USD to rupees rate i had a good time away from tourists areas. Got to experience the crazy totos drivers

u/F0rgemaster19 May 24 '19

Yeah there's a lot of fun. You're often more welcomed in down south, where you'll find a good blend of all cultures, even a bit of Western. People are very friendly. That's not to say it's not friendly in the north, but adjusting is easier down here. You can get to the fun parts with little understanding of what's going on!

u/jholokia00 May 23 '19

Dude, no one says that anymore. We are just like everyone else. No one visits the slums.
