About things to explore, if you cover entire India, it is a mind boggling and mind blowing country with fantastic diversity. Most of the middle class affordable Indians itself have not seen the true diversity. The northeastern states are mostly uncovered by the vast majority.

Article 343 of the Indian constitution stated that the official language of the Union is Hindi in Devanagari script instead of the extant English. Later, a constitutional amendment, The Official Languages Act, 1963, allowed for the continuation of English alongside Hindi in the Indian government indefinitely until legislation decides to change it.

Tips for Foreigners to be able to adapt Indian diet in the early days (from a doctor): 1. Get Pan 40 x 15 days 2. Get MVBC (Becosules) x 10 days 3. Get Enterogermina and probiotic pills x 5 days 4. For days when you feel dehydrated keep ORS powder (One Litre Formulations) ready (max 1L/day) You'll find all these formulations in a medical store near you. To your diet add 100-200gms of curd or yoghurt everyday and 200-300 ml of Chaas/Buttermilk everyday if you're not lactose intolerant. Remember to only visit doctors with *MBBS or MD degrees* when you get sick (symptoms lasting for >48 hrs unless emergency)

Bihari languages shouldn't be considered as dialects of hindi. Languages like Maithili, bhojpuri, magahi, ambika originated from the eastern branch of prakrit i.e. magadhi prakrit, whereas pahari languages, bundeli, bagheli, khariboli (later adopted as standard hindi), haryanvi and awadhi derived from central branch i.e. Shauraseni prakrit.

Hi Benjamin = You can try this. Get tap water and bring to boiling temperature and then cool it. Then you could add spices like Jeera and elachi and also some tulsi leaves. You will love it and eliminate Indias water pollution problem. Enjoy India.

But the best part of India is, it’s rising with one the highest growth rates in the world ! BTW thanks 🙏 for the review. It certainly will shift mindset of others! I wish you to be a great experience here 😀

Great videos, Ben. You summarize the essense of what makes life in India good - adapt, experience and enjoy all that India offers. I live like an American in America, and live like an Indian in India. It is difficult to compartmentalize like that but I feel that is the best way to enjoy both countries. The trouble starts when one brings a Western framework to "evaluate" life in India. Many who do this perpetuate negative stereotypes about India. Similarly, I have also seen some armchair critics in India (usually from the affluent class) evaluate life in U.S. using Indian benchmarks and values - which is again not fair. Understanding what makes both countries great in their own way starts with an honest self-reflection and a nonjudgmental study of each country's civilizational history.

Hey benjamin try having a fish with your mostly vegetarian meals, if it's a small one have the whole or if it's big then have a piece of it. In bengal we eat fish with every meal. Beware of the tiny little spike like bones.
