GRRRLTRAVELER | Christine Kaaloa I am From Kolkata .

[@raymeah9848]

I'm surprised you didn't die of dysentery or cholera eating that crap. They don't wash their hands before food preparation as many lack access to sanitation facilities India 🤢

[@user-oe8gq8gk7j]

hiiKolkata

[@shourjoroychaudhuri3111]

I love my city

[@shilpabaidyametaphoricallies]

This is the most beautifully captured video of kolkata I have seen so far. It's not unnaturally aesthetic. It's raw. It doesn't focus on anything to alter the idea. It isn't stereotypical. It's not grunge. It captures the essence without overdoing it. Its a retreat

[@grrrltraveler]

I appreciate that feedback! I was trying to communicate the honest charm I saw, felt inspired by and which makes it a unique beauty amidst other cities. Truly charming city !

[@ml5350]

Sandeepa baidya treat , not retreat

[@timetotravel0620]

happiness is watching own City in a KZbin video posted by a foreigner

[@grrrltraveler]

It was a magical city to me. I squeezed Delhi and Mumbai out of their top seats.

[@lisasamaddar4160]

Arijit Lionel Dutta yes...😀

[@bisweswarsenchowdhury2646]

Arijit Lionel Dutta true man 😎

[@amitsaha9770]

Miss Cinephilia nice to see that all you like kolkata. Can we be friend?

[@SahilTalkss]

Yes...

[@jemimaahmed6181]

kolkata is my favourite city in the whole world i dont wanna compare with other cities in the world coz this city gives the ultimate joy than the other one....u can get anything here which would make u feel hundred of different cities based here..i love kolkata

[@bharatkumarsuthar8218]

KOLKATA GREAT CITY

[@rajdeeppaul296]

Jemima Ahmed if u can love something more than anything u can profoundly say that it is better than others

[@Pegasus_International]

Jemima Ahmed seems u hv only traveled to Kolkata.. 💩 city

[@swapnilkar7659]

hey i am a indian kolkata tourist guide people from outside india can contact me i can help you

[@Starfish845]

it's amazing how much kolkata have changed in just 4 years,, way more modern but still holding its culture and heritage

[@mackwatson5249]

No doubt the best Street food in India you only get in Calcutta & Calcutta only....

[@Handleis369]

Joke of the century

[@dipnarayanmukherjee9485]

True

[@teodorabeljic5800]

Lovely. I lived in Cal in the 70 ties for 4 yrs and went back 2 yrs ago! Such a change for good.

[@geraldmahoney4856]

I spent 10 months in Calcutta back in 81/82. I had the time of my life. Completely deferent then anything I experienced before. It was my first overseas adventure. From there I went to Bern Switzerland. Talk about culture shock.

[@ayanangshunayak6081]

You missed Belur Math where the idea of modern India emerged. It's very nice place too.

[@suerayss]

AWESOME video. You seem so open and comfortable with the chaos and squalor. True travel spirit and fun to watch and learn. Thank you for the video.

[@aaqilahs2011]

Your videos give such a refreshing perspective to travelling, and to life itself. Loved how you acknowledged that everyone needs to survive in their own way and that our beliefs aren't going to put food on someone's table. Thank you for making me realise this. :)

[@kyshark1]

Wow I'm loving this video of my hometown! Amazing job in capturing the quintessential kolkata and I'm also amazed by your level of knowledge! I'm now missing the kolkata street food...all thanks to you 😃

[@ricardojohnson9584]

Loved it!

[@tejeshpratap5420]

Hey, Christine Very much impressed by your travel appetite, willingness to try new things, and your ability to understand India. I have seen a couple of your videos and the way you can find interesting things and underline it among chaos and disorder is marvelous. You are a seasoned and mature traveler and your love for India wins my respect. Keep it up!

[@grrrltraveler]

Thanks +tejesh pratap ! At this point, I feel like India is like a drug, which is the first country to do that to me of date. I HAVE to have it again and again! Culturally I find it so diverse and fascinating; there's no other place in the world like it. The chaos part I always feel is important to show or note b/c being on the "western traveler end", that's one thing westerners feel overwhelmed by. My first trip to India, I just didn't want to blink; I felt like I wanted eyes on the back of my head. It was more visual stimulation that Times Square in New york. The more I get comfortable with traveling India, the more i want to share my perspective of its beauty and why I keep returning. But my perspective is still always as a tourist. =)

[@bikashmodak]

You must visit Kolkata in time of Durga Puja one of biggest festival of Bengali People. i'm sure u will find a new Kolkata in those four to Five days.

[@grrrltraveler]

+Bikash Modak I was hoping to go back this year for that festival; unfortunately, my budget cant handle much travel this year. . I just narrowly missed last year by a few days and met some Indians who showed me their photos! WOW!

[@bikashmodak]

Yeah, i know that by watching "Kumortuli'" u got here before the Festival of "Diwali" (Kalipuja) which is also one of biggest festival of India, i think u miss that too (IDK just guessing ) by Departed before it's start. Anyway their always a next year in India for every festival. Hoping to see in India again. Thanks For the Reply.

[@nebula1498]

GRRRLTRAVELER | Christine Kaaloa are you which ethnicity????curious

[@shobharoy2033]

I stay in Kolkata, and it is so irritatingly noisy during Durga Puja, that we take a vacation to Sikkim or Dooars

[@foodietravellerraj]

one time visit to Kolkata during Durga puja is good though it is loud and congested ,u can also travel to other parts of India during Durga puja. Delhi has some good pujas ,so does Mumbai

[@sylviachen1600]

I loved this video and it took me back to my childhood as I grew up in Kolkata and went to school in Darjeeling! I live in Chicago now and have not been back so this was so great to watch!

[@grrrltraveler]

Glad you liked it. What an incredible childhood you had!

[@sky-fi9370]

Being a Calcutan Vlogger, it feels amazing to see other content creators in my city!

[@tomp.7725]

Thank you for showing us everyday India.

[@stewthewanderer]

Incredible info. Looks amazing. I love India

[@DM-vx8nf]

i love my kolkata.... thanks for making this video on my city.. thanks once again

[@maximillianparanal1005]

will visit all these soon

[@souvikmandal46]

These places are at least 200 years old and have their own uniqueness. I think Dakshineswar temple, Victoria Memorial, Princep ghat, bow barrack should have been included.

[@tamaldas5151]

also Alipore Zoo, Coffee House, Mother Teresa House. Jorasanko Thakur Bari, Fort William. Botanical Gardens. National Library. Royal Calcutta Turf Club. Should be included along with Science City, Nicco Park, Eco Park, Aquatica etc.

[@alimohtashimkhan2711]

Beautiful video.

[@VoltesWithElias]

Great video. Informative. Thanks for sharing.

[@manuelantonioserodio5932]

Very good video. Thank you very much Christine.

[@CambodiaNomadTips]

Loved the video. Hope to make it there one day.

[@shatadruray8782]

The love ,joy and the warmth of the city is the best in Kolkata 💖

[@AjaySinghLifeBreezy]

I regularly commute to Kolkata but it has been altogether a totally different experience to watch it through your lens. I enjoyed watching this video!

[@michaelmallal9101]

Kolkuta must be the ultimate city in the world. Fabulous bel canto (beautiful singing) in this video.

[@petermauderli]

Thanks for the nice impression. Street food looks yummy. Waiting for your next video.

[@grrrltraveler]

+Peter Mauderli Glad you enjoyed. The food is very yummy! ;D

[@wrsarkar]

great video and awesome point of view to see the beauty of my City by a foreigner, Kolkata is in my every breath. what ever it is it still my city my soul. great work mam love you.

[@mikeykeyes]

one of the best videos of Kolkata I have seen. So focused on what to do and the general lifestyle instead of the usual Western perspective. Bravo

[@SantonuDhar]

Nice guide...

[@peerrouf6200]

Nice video with cool back ground music

[@moushumigoswami7654]

Excellent vlogging

[@suranjandey2223]

Love your work..

[@SPDRailfan]

great video !!!!👍👍👍👍 I am from Kolkata / Calcutta . you have visited to the depths of the city . liked very much . subscribed you.

[@ronitchak]

Christine , the way you tried to catch the glimpse of vibrant city within very short timespan is remarkable. Only an outsider can notice so many details which is almost impossible to do from inside. (Eg - the manual labor's techniques to lift the weights ) ... :)

[@grrrltraveler]

Vibrant is a good word for Kolkata. I honestly wish I had more time to get deeper with Kolkata. Because I know I'm merely scraping surface and what little I saw was dazzling to me. I think details are easy to notice for foreigners. I have difficulty filming Hawaii for the fact I'm born and bred there and kind of bored. I found those manual laborers absolutely remarkable to do the job that machines or very large men would. We're talking the ability to move "Tons' of weight!!! Very Guinness World Book Record class. =)

[@Oxig]

i am too from kolkata

[@bijanmahata]

Good One

[@foodonway]

I as an Indian I am watching the Kolkata from your eyes..... It's a great idea from your end...... Hats off to you

[@grrrltraveler]

+Tapas K Mandi the colors at night were stunning. Where would've been the best spot to film and is it hard for a tourist to find?

[@grrrltraveler]

+Rachel J. Get there while it's still FREE! It's really an awesome tour; I would've paid for it. Instead, I just tipped heavier.

[@JustGoneViral]

That song at 6.03 😍

[@bhuvanamani9151]

So proud as an Indian to see such hard working people .. trulyIndia no matter which city is a heaven on earth with warm and sincere people among all the commotion of life . Thanks for making my day with a virtual tour of Kolkata 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@grrrltraveler]

You're absolutely welcome! all you said is exactly how I felt. It's a warm city, beautiful hardworking people

[@arindam77]

I have lived in this city for 26 years but never been to the flower market or the wholesale market lol. Apart from the street food trail the city has to offer different other cuisines as well. One of the interesting food trail is the Cantonese family run restaurants (Tung Nam to name one of them). Also the Park Street area is home to restaurants offering European cuisine, and of course you can not miss out traditional Bengali food. Nice effort Christine

[@abhishek.kmr243]

My fav. city in INDIA

[@grrrltraveler]

+abhishek kumar definitely one of my favorite Indian cities too!

[@v66bry]

Just watched your latest vlog on your other channel...your right there's no place like home...I'm in Phuket now!!! Omg it's hot...but the water festival was fun

[@grrrltraveler]

+v66bry Enjoy Phuket and glad you got to experience Songkran. That's still on my #bucketlist.

[@VoiceOfReason5487]

Kolkata is my birth city but I haven't visited in 30 years. So I like to watch KZbin videos of Kolkata until I can visit again. Your production is the best I've seen! Thank you for presenting my birth city in such a respectful manner. I wish you all the best!

[@grrrltraveler]

Thank you +Santanu Datta You should revisit again. I adored Kolkata. So much character-- it stood out to me as one of the interesting cities in India. Love the old ambassador taxi feel. Need to go back to experience Durga Puja!

[@kunwarsahab3307]

My heart always beat for kolkata i always miss my born city. I love kolkata.
