"Expats in Mumbai appreciate the city's vibrant culture, which is a mix of traditional Indian values and modern influences.

"The food. The food. The food. The amazing things you can get in the markets/shops from scarves to carvings to jewelry. People are very friendly if you smile when asking for help. My friends who helped us adjust that became the closest we've ever had. Oh, and Bollywood. Its absurdity/dancing is just a lot of fun and I bought a few movies and will keep up with the celebrities," commented one expat who made the move to Mumbai, India.
