Only in India...

So I during my stay back here in the motherland, I have made some observations which I will now share with you now.

Enjoy my top 12 of…

Only in India

~ …is playing chicken with other motorists on the road, an acceptable pastime while traveling.

~ …can you fit four adults & a baby on a motorcycle!

~ …does the shaking of the head mean yes, no, maybe, I don't understand you but I will nodd to make you think I do!

~ …Will you see a dog, two camels, couple of cats, a bunch of monkeys, herds of cows, & other misc farm animals, rosters, hens, & a lizard. All this on a short trip to the store.

~ …is it legal to sell petrol(gas) in empty water bottles, from your house.

~ …have I experienced reverse discrimination, where the white skin people are hailed supreme, almost God like, but Indians treated as worthless in their presence.

~ …will you hear sayings like, "Man-Friday" & "Hyper as a kite", "Morning madam/sir", "It will be here in 10 min."(never to come at all), "You wait here", "Your luggage will be here @ 1am"(5 days in a row & later you get your bag! Sharon;)

~ …can you find "Genuine Copies" of Gucci watches in a legit store!!!! Lol

~ …can you eat curry/masala for breakfast, lunch & dinner:) yum yum

~ …can you be at the beach & there will be people there in their suits & sarees.

~ …will you pay $9 an hr for internet! (yes I'm a little salty)

~ … last but not least, ONLY IN INDIA crows hang out at the beach instead of seagulls!

Love you guys. I'm out.
