[@moonshine5576]

if you like quiet places then North East India is nice for you. it is one of the real jewels of India undiscovered paradise among foreigners. people there look East Asian, full of tribes and great nature. although the culture has been changed due to half the population converted by Missionaries from UK and USA. still it is great place to visit. you will be surprised how clean n green it is and how simple the people are.

[@IfWeGoTo]

That was one of the areas we really wanted to see! The way you describe it makes I sound very culturally interesting. I hope we can make it one day! :) Thank you!

[@vidyasonavane9602]

It’s important for people who make these videos to understand, India’s current local poverty is because of looting by foreigners. So be respectful and focus on positives, and you can do things to offset the injustices on this population, don’t bad mouth India, Bharat.

[@sunny-mo1zy]

You're doing what every foreign traveller does, doing the Delhi-Agra-Jaipur 'Golden Triangle'. it's the most overrated thing and in no way can be called 'India' because it's all within 250Km radius. The Golden Triangle is simply a 3 day route designed by the tourism ministry back in the 90s for foreign diplomats, nothing else. India has 28 states (29 earlier), every state has unique culture, landscape, language and food. If you were to spend at least 2 days exploring a state, it would still take 60 days or 2 months.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Well I guess people tend to start on the well-beaten path hahaha. But we definitely plan on visiting other locations when we come back. We had actually planned to stay in India several months and even got a year-long visa but we ended up getting really sick and had to leave early. 😩

[@rahilmalhotra001]

Dude relax, its their first time in India. They can go to other places on their next tour.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Exactly! Thank you!! We really wanted to visit Delhi because we have friends there, so it made sense to see the Golden Triangle because everything else was so close! :)

18:58 there is no need or mandatory for any donation by foreigners though it does local too. 19:30 The temple complex of Sita Ram ji temple.. due to the large number of monkeys who live there british popularised this name as monkey temple.

For sure! In the west when you go to a shop that sells tea, they label it as “chai tea”…. I think it’s just to differentiate it from other teas. So yes I agree it isn’t technically correct, but for our friends/family in the west they may not have known the type of tea if we didn’t say it that way!

Don't know what chai tea is. Never heard that before. It's either chai or tea.

[@IfWeGoTo]

In the US (and I think other western countries do it too) we refer to it as “chai tea” to differentiate it. Just a language difference. 🤷‍♀️

[@AbbyPDV]

For us, we have been hearing either chai (in Hindi) or tea ( English) since our childhood. It sounds like chai chai or tea tea. Chai and Tea are the same.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Yes, but for english speakers it is different and we call it Chai Tea. :)

[@AbbyPDV]

Good for you guys but for us it sounds repetitive. Been drinking chai for the last 30+ years but never came across this. Looks like someone in the west came up with this name unknowingly. There are 100s of varieties of Chai in India but listing down a few. Masala Chai... Ginger or adrak Chai. ... Cardamom or Elaichi Chai. ... Suleimani Chai. ... Noon Chai... Irani Chai.. Lebu Chai. ... Tulsi Chai... Ronga saah...

[@IfWeGoTo]

Sorry it sounds repetitive! I know language differences can cause a bit of confusion. Thank you for the tips on all of the different varieties!!

[@kirtigupta9753]

It's only Chai or Tea. Chai means Tea. So you're essentially saying Tea, Tea.

For sure! In the west when you go to a shop that sells tea, they label it as “chai tea”…. I think it’s just to differentiate it from other teas. So yes I agree it isn’t technically correct, but for our friends/family in the west they may not have known the type of tea if we didn’t say it that way. Hahaha

If you went to Galtaji and did not click pics with the monkeys then the trip was incomplete.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Hahaha we definitely got some pics of the monkeys!

[@marcstylish-st1lw]

@@IfWeGoTo that's great but snaps with monkeys sitting on you would have been better. Anyway there is always a next time.

[@IfWeGoTo]

@@marcstylish-st1lw we don’t really like to touch wildlife.. they can be a bit unpredictable 😂 we’ve almost been attacked by monkeys on more than one occasion! Lol

[@marcstylish-st1lw]

@@IfWeGoTo Oic it is a psychological issue then. Usually monkeys in Indian and Nepali temples do not bite but you never know, similarly even with dogs. Ultimately it is good to travel safe at your comfort level and take risks which you want to.

[@IfWeGoTo]

@marcstylish-st1lw haha yes exactly!! You never know with wild or feral animals. I assume the ones at the temple are more accustomed to humans, but like you said - you never know!

Did you at any time wear traditional clothes saree,dhoti

[@IfWeGoTo]

Hi!! I wore a Kurta a lot! We would love to try more traditional clothing though, I think Indian garments are very beautiful! 😃

There is nothing called chai tea....in India tea is called chai ..so both chai nd tea having same meaning

Lovely video. Thanks for dressing up respectfully in front of the locals. It’s a chai. Not chai tea. Also we will appreciate if you learn the correct pronunciations of the attractions. Also if you can afford to support the locals rather than just paying the low tickets costs which are meant for local Indian people. You are having a nice experience, just keep it at that and not call India a wild place. I find it amusing that foreigners think 300 rs is expensive. U should have spent the $7per person because you can afford.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Thank you! We are very happy you enjoyed the video! Next time we will try to do better on pronunciations! It can be a challenge as a foreigner, especially when you visit many different places and cultures that all do things differently.

yoooou need a mask ? 1 month ago ??????is it mandatory

[@IfWeGoTo]

It is not! Alan is very sensitive to pollution and decided to wear them when it was bad or we were near roads.

[@myslowslayings]

Calling “chai”, “chai-tea” already disappointed me in the beginning of the video

[@IfWeGoTo]

Ahh sorry about that.. back home we call it “chai tea” to differentiate it from other teas. So just a misunderstanding due to language difference!

[@kalyanroy5994]

Don't call it Chai tea man.Chai in English is tea ,so you are basically saying tea tea😂😂.Maybe you should just call it Indian tea or Milk sugar tea.

Yeah I agree,even Starbucks have not changed their menu name Chai tea Latte even after having Indian origin CEO now 😂😂

[@IfWeGoTo]

I actually didn’t know that!! But yeah, I think it may confuse westerners if you just called it chai there!! 😂

[@megawattti]

bad audio!

[@IfWeGoTo]

Yeah 🥲 that is why much of this video was a voice over, we had a cable break and hadn’t known yet. Hope the small sections of bad audio between the narration weren’t too bad!

[@flyingdutchmanism]

Please stop saying Chai-Tea! It gives me a head-ache.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Hi! Sorry we say this where we are from to different it between other teas, we don’t just call tea “chai” in English. Just a difference in language, no headaches intended! 😊

[@flyingdutchmanism]

@@IfWeGoTo I understand lol but imagine a south asian coming to your country and calling Tea “Tea-chai” or calling Bread “Bread-naan” 😂

[@IfWeGoTo]

@@flyingdutchmanism I wouldn’t be upset about that at all. We’re from the USA, there are people from all over the world and tons of languages/cultural groups. It’s impossible to know every language and the nuances between them. If you want someone to learn one of those nuances about your own language/cultural norms, the best thing you can do is politely teach them.

[@flyingdutchmanism]

@@IfWeGoTo i’m not being impolite and neither am I upset. Not sure why you’re being so defensive. Its a simple comment made in jest.

[@IfWeGoTo]

The polite way to make your initial comment would have been: “hey, just so you know for the future it’s said this way”. Not “it gives me a head ache” And then after we apologized already, giving another example of “hey imagine someone did this to you! You’d be annoyed!” Gee I wonder how someone could have possibly pushed back? You’re making antagonizing comments! You’re creating a problem when there just isn’t one.
