U have surprise for you: Mangoes are also available in off season if you search real good, but they don't taste so good, since they make it ripe with coal heat, it is too heat for ur body, could cause: nose bleed, burn in potty, fire while urine 😂(use naleenai for it, btw it is Tamil)

[@robertw8666]

It is interesting that more Westerners have not chosen to retire in India. For Americans it is so easy to stay there with little documentation in regards to a visa. Before going to India the first time I was expecting to have a long list of things to complain about and walked away complaining about almost nothing. The possible exception was the quality of air in Delhi in November. The easy solution is to stay out of Delhi during the winter. Other than than then the city has so much to offer. Thanks for the cheery video . I continue to wait hoping India will start issuing tourist visas again soon.

[@bjenks]

Hey Robert, I would think more Americans would choose India as well. Where I am there is a significant retirement population and it makes a lot of sense

[@hansvonmeinstien3660]

Delhi Govt is deploying loads of smog towers to control the smog and purify the air during winters, lets hope it works as good as it sounds.

No retirement visa, can't (legally) buy property. Thailand has an awesome retirement visa, maybe people feel India isn't interested??

If it is possible to get Mangoes throughout the year, then they are not even Mangoes anymore. Or Maybe you will not feel the same way about mangoes if you can get it anytime. The excitement wears off. Let a seasonal fruit be seasonal fruit.

@@bjenks The problem is, this guy started comparing US or any other with consciously or unconsciously. If India is like US/Japan, it would be so boring. Each one is different and that's great. India is so diverse and never boring. When I traveled to Europe as an Indian, I felt so boring and fearful to see noiseless roads and checked as if I became suddenly deaf or not, though honking here is too much since people don't know or haven't studied the road rules actually. World is beautiful because its diverse and India is mini world. Love this guy for being honest.

We have a solution for mangoes all year round and there are multiple options ... 1. Mango pickle (spicy and in oil) 2. Mango pickle (dried, salted and like a jerky) 3. Mango as a digestive (in goli or round ball form) 4. Mango papad or dried mango pulp made the Indian way, dried, rolled into sheets and seriously great concentrated flavor 5. Mango concentrate, crush, jam and so on Simpler, easier and right here, right now !!!

6:42 welcome to India😂😂 But yeah I personally feel honking should be reduced to a certain lvl. I can't imagine Indian traffic like everything running smoothly, no honking, driving in proper lanes😂 India is and should always be a little imperfect... although a lot needs to be improved

[@HonestSatish]

I recently discovered your channel as it landed in my feed. I am going through vidoes as they are pretty interesting. Watched this and made me puzzle that you havn't actually complained anything. We ourselves complain a lot within India mostly because of lack of courtasy and deperation of people to get ahead of queue. Pretty evident to few Indians who have teavelled abroad. You might also have observed it and don't have to name publicly. It could start with a counter rant and endangering your stay. Loved you series, loved the positivity, the entertainment nature and happy go attitude. As you already had I still wish many more happy times in India. Cheers!

[@bjenks]

thanks Satish!

[@firstsecond98]

Fruits are seasonal , nature gives u food according to weather and what body needs in that season. I don't want any scientist to destroy our eating habits with GMO

[@VeganSanatani]

For me....The only reason I look forward to summer season is because of mangos...if they well available all year round...they would not be special

[@sidharthk4800]

Wow. One of the very few people who really understands the life in India and You're truly amazing, Definitely, lots of foreigners don't understand the reason behind the poor people selling things in the street and the reason of traffic and noise.

Good and constructive criticism is pretty much needed . There are no doubts that India has lots of issues and I guess you know it all after living here for such a long time . It's good to see the country from a westerners point of view .

[@TravelingEddie]

BENJAMINO! You are darn right. If any of you want something quiet for a week, 2 weeks, etc..., GO TO GARGI a village high above Manikaran in the Parvati Valley of Himachal Pradesh in The Himalayas. I was there for 10 days back in 2019. If you don´t like the snow nor the cold weather, GO IN April to June as it´s spring time. From Manikaran you have to hike up about 5 kilometers which can take a person 90 minutes to 3 or 4 hours depending on your physical state. It took me 90minutes and the place is so quiet. The name of the ONLY Airbnb there I stayed at is Sun Vieew Cafe and the owner is Teku a cool dude who speaks enough English so you can chill with him and have a good chat. It´s aplace away from everything. There are no shops, restaurants, bars, nightclubs, NOTHING except Teku´s small restaurant service for his guests. There´s plaenty to explore. Another place I visited there in The Himalayas in the district of Kullu was Bhalyani a small village as well. No cars nor any motorized vehicles can reach the village center. You have to leave your vehicle on the outskirts of the village and walk for 20 minutes to get there. It´s quiet overall plus a stunning view of the snowcapped mountains. The Airbnb place I stayed at is called Where Time Takes a Brake. Yeas it´s spelt Brake. Anuj is the Airbnb guy and also a Trekking guide. I hired hime for a 5-hour trek which was awesome. There´s also a waterfall nearby. BENJAMIN sorry about the long message but wanna help people discover more of the beautyof India and the beauty of her people have to give to the world and also for you to have these two places to consider visiting once you can start traveling and vlogging inside of India brother.

[@atharvrai3751]

I live in Uttar Pradesh, which you have already visited. I would be really glad and happy if you visited the eastern states like Assam, Mizoram etc. They're really beautiful places and are often ignored, I myself have not visited those places. If you go there and make videos it'll be very popular among Indians too as a majority of Indians have not visited East. Love to you, hope you be healthy and happy!

In southern India mangoes start available from April and ends in June whereas northern parts from June to August.

[@vagabondp8335]

Thanks for educating about the 4 different types of ants🤣🤣I had forgotten how they look like😂😂I live outside of India now.

[@abhinavn4555]

1. Mangoes: The only Inovation Indians have done with mangoes is growing different varities on a single tree. There is one man in Uttar Pradesh who has grown over 300 varities of Mangoes on a single tree by grafting. Just not possible to make them available throughout the year, I think you can get raw mangoes though. 2. ATMs: well what can I say. 3. Noise: I get what you mean by the last Honker, I have seen people drive at Night in Cities with a continuous horn so that no one comes and suprises them. Speaking of quite places, I have been to the Himalays many times and most places are quite, some so much so that you may feel scary going out in day time (might also because of wild Animals). 4. Ants: I have seen them cut holes in packed products if they have been lying there for a while. Though I'm suprised that you didn't say mosquitoes..😂 Every place has its pros and cons in the world.Enjoy the perks and try to find solutions to your problems.

Not having mangoes for more than 2 months is also a very Indian thing. You really should not strive to break nature, the wait makes the mango season special. Also, according to ayurveda there is a season to eat each food to stay healthy. Eat the fruits that grow in that season, it is healthy.
