We feel like we have only just arrived in India, after a crazy time back home doing van life and living full time in our camper van conversion for two years in the UK. But after some serious engine problems that cost us a fortune, we came to India on a mission to honour Liam's Grandad's legacy who sadly died earlier this year. With the inheritance money Liam got from that, we bought the tuk tuk and named it after Liam's Grandad.

Joanne, what you said is so true ♥️ I lived in Gokarna which is in the state of Karnatica in India. I stayed with a local family on Kudle beach. They also had a family home in Gokarna village. They used to invite me to their village home and always offered me chai and food. Similar to Liam and Janine's experience I also ate before the family. I was also invited to celebrations and festivals in the family home. They were always full of fireworks and colour. Theres no formalities, just pure Love and kindness towards their guests. ♥️

Indians say "vasudiva kutumbakam". It means the whole world is one family. Indians also say "athithi devo bhava". It means guest is god.

[@preethishetty6179]

That is part of Indian culture wherein Guest gets the best bed and best food , anything we eat , guest get it first only what is left after satiating the guest the host family consumes . As kids we slept on floor mattress whenever we had more relatives visiting us . Watching western movie where guest get the couch to sleep was something different for us .

The word for guest in Sanskrit is 'Athithi'. 'Thithi' means time, 'Athithi' means one who is welcome in your house at any time of the day. So in India, a guest has the right to knock on your door at any time of the day. When the guest arrives, you offer them water to wash their feet. Then you feed the guests. The reason for feeding the guest first is to make sure that they have enough to eat. You just don't share what you have with the guests, you make sure that they eat first and are well fed. Once you feed them, you offer them a place to take a nap. When I was a kid, I remember my grandmother used to have her lunch late in the afternoon. This was to make sure that there is food for any unexpected guest around lunch time. Thank you for the wonderful video

[@0arjun077]

Isn't Kala the Time? Thithi somehow related to Truthi ? One of the smallest unit of time in Hindu units of time.

Thank you for this great insight into Indian culture. What an amazing country. What wonderful people.

[@abhilashveettil6206]

​@@0arjun077 'Thithi' is a unit of time as per the Hindu calendar. One Thithi equals the time the moon takes to move 12 degrees away from the sun. There are 30 Thithis in a lunar month. So you are right, Thithi is exactly translated to time. Kala and Samaya are different words for time in Sanskrit.

Very good experience, and thanks for sharing...shows how welcoming India is, while in news they only shows the opposite. Keep sharing your lovely experience lovely and genuine family you both are.

Well in the news they only cover Mumbai and Delhi which doesn't even cover 1% of India. India Cities are bad especially Delhi and Mumbai your media is right about that but India is more than few cities with over a Billion Population.

[@davidmarshall5596]

Well Pete + 2..the family treated you like royalty 🙂they couldn't do enough for you both & here we are yet again seeing how human beings behave in India towards their 'guests' ...now I'm thinking this is like going back in time to how people used to be towards one another here in the UK..but something tells me that this isn't the sort of thing that we are familiar with anymore 🤔 lovely to see the family being so marvellous 😊 another excellent vlog..stay safe and well & Liam keep concentration on them roads 👍

Great way to start my Sunday morning. What a lovely family. In my experience, meeting families and people local to the place you’re visiting, is by far the best way to really bypass the nonsense and get into the gritty beautifulness of the country and it’s culture. Thank you. ✨🌈👏🏻🌈✨
