The idea of India being tough for Western travelers to prepare for is a common narrative. It's known as a place where most travelers will face culture shock. In this episode of Alpaca My Bags, we're exploring these perceptions with one of our listeners, Anuj! We discuss the stereotyped perceptions of India that are held by foreigners, and we explore the diversity of India - from it's languages to it's food and culture. Plus, we dig into the legacy of colonialism in India, class differences, and the ethics of slum tours.
