    10:03 On the contrary, Indians do more digital transactions in terms of volume than USA. You can even see the QR Code on the shop. Even the autowallahs use digital wallet. But, at the same time, it's good practice as a first time tourist to keep cash for emergency.

    Hospitality is kind of like second nature to Indians..it's been taught from the childhood. We present our best selves to the guests(doesn't matter if we are really good or bad people). It's almost hilarious in some situations. Say, in a household the family members are fighting or doing some other nasty stuff, or may be they are toxic to each other, but they will instantly become the most polite and gentle people if a guest arrives. Some people will keep their house dirty or messed up year around, but they will clean and arrange everything before a guest arrives. So, on many occasions it's primarily driven by the image consciousness and societal impression and the perception of others. Add to that our "easy to get amused" mindset, that makes us curious to anything that's even little out of the ordinary...foreigners being one of them. I am not saying everyone is like that, there are many people who genuinely like caring about guests and strangers. After all "Atithi Debo Bhava"(Guests are Divine) is a core belief of Indian culture along with "Basudhaiba Kutumbakam"(Every people from everywhere on earth are relatives)

There's journey , people's , festivals , traditions, trains , metros , auto rickshaws , etc etc ....Glad i will get to see how you guys experiences and love for my motherland ...i hope by end of your tour you both understand why it's simply called Incredible India , so no spoilers .
    Hospitality is like a in built quality for us indians. Btw about the veg , i promise you few days in and you won't be able to differentiate or miss non veg when you eat so many i mean literally 100s of dishes made with pure veg ....but no worries ...india also has biryani and all other non veg "mouth watering" stuffs for you know if you still need it . I personally am blessed to be able to enjoy both and you will get to know what I am talking about very soon in your journey throughout india.

    I would love for you to ask the indian host about the 'festival' about which the kids were talking about in which they had those bracelet type threads on their hands.
    The name of the festival is- 'Raksha Bandhan'
    Hint- it's a festival between sisters and brothers, the sisters (could be real, cousin, sometimes classmates, female relatives, or close friends) tie that thread as a mark of love and brother promises to always proyect her forever no matter what, and also gifts her something.
    The girl also has to make a tika on his forehead and give him a dessert, i prefer a 'barfi'.

    Don't take me as a racist, but i like to know it when someone is not from the us, my reason is that people from other nations seem to be a little more rooted and that's something i just like anyone else appreciate.
    Moments i loved, seeing you guys have some expected and unexpected culture shocks, like so many animals on the road, etc.
    Also liked to see him play cricket in india, her tasting 'gulabjamun',and many more things.
