What do expats in India appreciate most about the local culture?

Answer this Question

We asked expats and digital nomads what they appreciate the most about the local culture in India. They wrote...

"Expatriates in India often appreciate the country's vibrant culture, plentiful customs and traditions, and welcoming hospitality. They are often fascinated by the variety of unique cuisines, languages, and dialects present in India. They are also impressed by the religious diversity and tolerance that exists in India, as well as the country's great history and heritage. Additionally, many expats appreciate the colorful festivals, traditional music, dance and other art forms found in India," said another expat in India.

"Delivery service for everything. My dog got sick and a vet came to the house. I order almost all my groceries. With the help of my Indian friends, I got a cook and maid at current rates instead of expat rates. My Mumbai dentist has equipment better than my dentist did at home. Once I figured out how to get around, I now ride rickshaws everywhere," wrote a member who made the move to Mumbai, India.
