University students teach me about a strange local drink đźđł

- Alright, so I wanted to make a quick stop on my way back to my room, but this taxi driver had a different plan.
I understand needing work and business, but I just don't like people following me a couple blocks when I already told them I don't want their service.
Anyways, I got my slides and what I thought was a pretty good deal, but the taxi driver seemed to think other wise.
After separating our ways and a little walking, I decided to quench my thirst with my first Chennai Chai! Sweet and bitter but not like the masala chai in the north. This Chai seems to be heavier on the cream used. Really reminded me of Teh Terik in Malaysia.
Now, I had to do some work at a cafe and decided to show you a nice cafe in Chennai. This place does brownies and sweets just right. I tell you what, there are never a shortage of sweets in India.
Work done and I saw this super hygienic Paan seller so I didn't think I would find a better opportunity to try some paan out than now and for $0.37 why not? Just the right size as it wasn't too big and was just a good ole stall.
I inquired about deep sea fishing, but that quickly got denied with super high prices.
Now, if you have seen my earlier blogs, I am sorry for not using the local language. I finally learned my lesson and studied for a little bit. I gave it my best shot at a little pastry shop and was instantly greeted by smiles and laughs. As I was enjoying my pastry, I meet a group of university students and we talked about everything under the sun. The best part was teaching me Tamil and being able to use it right then and there.

As someone from Gujarati background, I love when foreigners visit South India, I know for sure that most people will treat them very well and majority speak fluent English. Shout out to South Indians!
Niceâ€ïž
Yes

Auto driver speaks better English than a normal graduate đ€Ł

auto driver has masters degree.
No
He knows English so well đthen why this job đ

Foreigners: Namaste bhaiya

That's bcoz both are foreign languages to chennaiittes and Hi is more familiar there.. just saying the fact.. no offense to our Hindi brothers..
@@visaravanan she not meant about hindi or other language but about foreigners doing bhartiya thing but we do others thing..
@@loksvid I get what she's trying to say.. what I meant to say is India is a country with plurality.. one language cannot be an identity.
Anyone(outsiders) saying 'vanakkam' in Chennai will be getting back 'vanakkam' with respect..
Max had lately realized by th response he got for 'Namaste'.
He must say vanakam here đ
Namaskar in odisha
Hats off to those chennai students ..they were not overbearing or intimidating ...rather they were frindly and treating him with respect ..seems like he felt more comfortable around them ..
I think they're MORONS... and shameless to let Max pay for themđĄ
@@San-naS Nope he didnt want them to pay .
@@San-naS they are students dude. Most of us are already broke. And the level of comfort he felt was great. Instead of being fake, they behaved naturally.
@@adityapatil4659 They behaved well, that's for sure. But they should have refused Max's money for their food. culture first.
Xavier?
South Indians people are really the proud of our Country...
Great Kids
Chennai people are so truthful!đ
Those kids were cool! Tamil people are well cultured! Huge love and respect from Nagaland
I think they're MORONS... and shameless to let Max pay for themđĄ
@@San-naS Why do you think so?
@@pavithravellingiri do you know thisđ adhithi devo bava.? the students should've buy food for him.
@@San-naS so you will pay for each and every one for food? Have ever done this for any Indian who is poor have you ever did that?
@@dikshayapadmanaban782 I thought you misunderstood my first comment. That's why I said it in a different way. Now you are twisting my opinion. Please read my first comment and then yours. I'm curious to hear what you come up with next! đŹđ·
Shoutout to those kids, they treated him with utmost respect. Exactly how we'd love to treat our guests! đ

You trying to learn Tamil is absolute gold. Thank you for giving the respect a culture and people deserve.
This video gave me life! đđ
So (dare I say) entertaining to see such a different perspective on things so familiar to us as locals. Loved how you dealt with things and your demeanour in general, really glad this was recommended to me!
Definitely subscribed.
Love u max for treating people in that beautiful way ..such a beautiful soul u are .. India needs to show much more genuine hospitality to foreigners ..
Indians need to learn to be more open and socially friendly..just like those students...
@@rightguyalwaysright9462 yeah .agreed but I have seen earlier bad conduct with hime while visiting in Delhi .
@@rightguyalwaysright9462 those students are educated and must be familiar with foreigners through internet
Common people aren't, they don't know much about foreigners, so can't expect them to behave normally - they might behave differently
@@atheisttttt very true..but Max is such a down to earth guy he doesn't anticipate or expect anyone to cheat him or be rude to him..he just walks straight up to any random person on the street..so he has mixed experiences every time..
@@rightguyalwaysright9462 learn from foreigners like him
Hey max!
I personally think that you should take change first and then give the tip. Not taking your money back makes them confused and they don't even realise it's a tip. They think you made a mistake.
It will genuinely make them more happy and less confused and uneasy (if someone ever feels guilty after not returning the money).
great point.also some of the peopel may be the owners of the shops and they don't need a tip.
Don't give tip to anybody, free money is not good
grt observation
@@abhijeetbhagat100 why its a problem for you?
@@Hsp44 problem is not for me, but for person he is giving
You're a special soul Max - wishing you a lifetime of happiness - the world needs more humans like you.
Awesome to see you learn Tamil! Your warmth and simplicity really comes through .. lots of best wishes and blessings to you Max! And proud of those students..polite respectful and cultured !
Trying local food, putting efforts to talk in regional language, communicating with people.. It got me glued to your channel! Very good content, looking forward for many more! đđ
He was speaking Hindi to everyone in Chennai, not a good look
@@rexsceleratorum1632 Grow up man.
@@rexsceleratorum1632 Cause he doesn't know that Hindi is not spoken in Southern part of India
@@pavithravellingiri he should know. It's a basic thing. I was cringing.
Regional language? Interesting
Appreciate your effort in learning Tamil language đ
Thank you đ
@@abhilash9766 uhhhhhđ. Same feeling with me
tourist comefor 2 or days byt u guys expect they should talk in tamil help tourists in english or hindi most of tamil people don even try to help
â@@miryalkarshivaram972 we didn't expect to speak Tamil, just happy to see an foreigner speeking in Tamil, if you have seen the video properly most people have spoken with him in English. Everyone is happy to help, may be you have an bad experience
Max max max, I am watching all your videos. Highly addictive and you are a genuine soul. Thanks
Agree! He is my inspiration for making videos in India!
Good to see you talks to youths and interactive...love Indians..you are our guests
I am scrolling you tube, suddenly this video drops ,I am mesmerized to see your behaviours with Indian folk, there are no one speak English properly, they trying to introduce whatever they work ,but you also try to acquainted themselves anxiously , you are outstanding , man keeps growing!â€ïžâ€ïžđđ»đđ
Yup its true for my side....max behaviour i love the way his talkđ„°đđ
Brother
âNamaste Bhaiyaâ is well accepted everywhere but it would great when you greet with âVanakkam Annaaâ in southern India specially in Chennai.
Tamil nadu*
Tamil Nadu onlyđ
You have biggest patience ever to tolerate lots of things when travelling! Wherever you go, like Nepal,India etc some crazy local ppl dont leave you alone but you smile off so patiently!
Wow.... This is the best nd detailed vlog from International person about India......
Thanks for these vdos....
3:23 Hey Max, we are sorry for our taxi driver's irritating behaviour. He was literally annoying U.
I request our Indian people to help foreign tourists and if we find anyone annoying our tourists, we must confront them.
It's our responsibility to treat our guest (tourists) respectfully.
We love our guests. Hope U treat this incident as an exception.
Sorry!
He wasnt irritating, he had a low business day & atleast he is not like you typing your opinion & wasting ur parents money & wasting time in the internet, get ur ass up and do something butthurt.
Why are you apologising for him? People like him are everywhere no need to apologise he doesn't represent India.
Bro why are u apologising for that man đ.We are 1.4 bil people,he does not represent whole India.
He not cheating him he marketing him to take taxi tats ok
Yeh.. As we knew about korean girl - mhyochi..
I was in such bad mood the whole day ...... then watched this vlog now I am feeling happy đ thanks max for bringing smiles on our faces as always â„ïžâ€ïž
same happened to me.
So glad to hear you are feeling happy!
@@dailymax24 max I really love you đ„°đ„° huge love from punjab

Talking in english is better with the locals not everyone knows hindi here haha . Amazing video!

Oh Gosh đ€Šââïž the South indians and their obsession to drag language in almost everything.

Understanding Indian change is easy.
We don't do quarters or pennies like USA.
Here, we have whole numbers.
If there's one written on the coin, it's one rupee same for two and five and even 10
We also have currency notes for 1, 2, 5 and 10
The notes for 1, 2 and 5 are quite rare to come across.
10 Rupees in both coin and note form is abundant throughout the market.
Trivia: You paid the tea vendor maybe 17-19 instead of 12.
We use to have, but due to inflation around late 90s, circulation of paisas came to s halt, and in India you have problem of change.
@@naturalselection1203 we don't need inflation like before 90s so stfu.
@Prashant Singh where the fuck did I say we need inflation. I fucking said we had inflation. Read and understand the fuckinng message before spewing venom in the comments section.
That Student told very right..... precious clipsâŁïž
Max, I was born and brought up in Mylapore.. I was there till my schooling.. I shifted from then within Chennai few years back, but looking at Senthil Softy where you had your cheese puff gave me lot of nostalgia.. Hope you had a great time!
I am smiling side to side after watching this! It's so heart warming to see you trying to blend in and enjoy with the locals and experience the true India! Leaving aside all the first world issues and simply being there and experiencing it is so good :)
You are such a kind and friendly person, can't even explain how honest you are in this toxic world
He is a good example for all of us!
as a chennaiite who has been away from India for 5 years, this makes me want to go back next year for a visit ! Especially after seeing you walking in alwarpet from 10:10 . Kutchery road at 20:41, my family lives there !!
You are a so humble and kind person
Love your personality, and also vlogs
Keep going

Hey man! I'm from India like most others here as well. Tbh you're just a different breed. You're friendly, adventurous and daring. You have the charm in your face which most youtubers don't from my point of view. I don't normally comment on videos. But you have earned my respect. Great to see people like you, unveiling the true sides of India. Best of luck, enjoy and never give up!
100% my thoughts. Agreed.

Whenever you travel south India, especially to Chennai, you have to call the people as thambi / Anna which means brother!! And donât say them namaste, just say hi or vanakam
So you mean he should say vanakkam in Kerala(south)

Bro...its so beautiful watching you learning and giving back
you did great thing, brought snacks for these students.
Good stuff,Max..those students are the nice, congenial kids that will hopefully go on to run Google, Microsoft, Amex, Visa etc. I likde their humility, smiles and a desire to learn. Very respectful and sweet. I have yet to meet anyone from India, Germany/Austria and Iran who wasn't well cultured and deeply versed in arts, sciences and epicurean delights. Ciao and Be Well..

Respected Guest,
I really appreciate your step in India and exploring our culture and places... I wish you enjoy here..... I have only one request just stay safe also and follow some protocols to keep you safe like any other countries I am not telling you because India is not safe but every kind of people everywhere or they didn't learned and care about our countries image.... For few benefits they also don't care to respect our guest too.... So happy journey and same message convey to everyone who belongs to you to aware about the own security
It's looking so amazing man

A suggestion to add on to your trip , if you have time and if you are one of those coffee connoisseurâs, you have to make a trip out to Araku Valley and itâs coffee museum.The best tasted coffee you could ever find in India . Trust me the coffee particularly in that museum is to die for !!! On the side note IMO âits better than Starbucksâ. Plus the chocolates Its literally little drops of heaven
