[India] No need to be scared anymore! Things you should know before you go🇮🇳
Things to know before traveling to India
☑️Transportation methodUber is the only option for short distances! Sometimes bad people ask for cash (Tuktuk is dangerous)
If you report Uber, they will support you
If they don't help you, just pay and give a low rating and report them
You should get your money back!
For long distance taxis, Tajwaycabs is the cheapest and most reliable! I was worried because it was the cheapest, but they worked really hard to get us there even on difficult roads and in the middle of the night🥹Even if they scratched the car, they navigated the narrow roads and got us there🥹
Trains and buses are pretty cheap, but they can be delayed for hours, and planes are fast but expensive, so weigh the efficient time and money and choose the method that suits you!
☑️Prepare for the deterioration of the stomach's securityIntestinal regulator, anti-diarrheal medicine, Seirogan, alcohol disinfectant, wet
Toilet paper is a must! I took a laxative with every meal, and I prepared a lot, so I had lassi
I think I only had a mild stomach problem after my stomach got worse🥹
Someone I know had stomach problems in India and was hospitalized, so medicinal and antiseptic products are a must!
I don't recommend eating food from food stalls because it's almost always bad for Japanese people with weak stomachs...it looks delicious, but...
Indian food is delicious, but you get tired of it🤣
Ready-made meals and miso soup when you get tired of rice
Pocari powder for when you get food poisoning
They're a real lifesaver, so be sure to try them🙌🏽
☑️Avoid direct negotiations on anything! Free kindness is dangerous! Basically, avoid direct price negotiations with drivers and guides because it will cause trouble later! This doesn't just apply to India! I had a terrible experience in Egypt😨
Especially from experience, people who are fluent in Japanese, talkative, and friendly are a total no-no🚨
There are a lot of really stingy people, so be careful! A college student I met on the way was so fooled that he was lamenting that he wanted to go home...😭
Also, there's nothing scarier than something that's free!
Even if they say it's free, ask about the price carefully!
If you get extra services, you'll be charged extra🤣
We were told that we had extra ink from henna tattoos, so we thought it was free, but they added on top of the amount they said!
If you're satisfied, we'll charge you whatever you want! It's also dangerous!
It's a big argument, so make sure you decide everything before you do anything!
☑️Don't buy SIM cards locally! I had done a lot of research and knew that it wouldn't connect for 24-48 hours, so I used an Esim as a backup and bought a SIM card at the local airport! However, the SIM card I bought at the airport never connected in the end. . It's inconvenient without the internet, so I recommend buying a SIM card in Japan in advance or using an Esim!
I wasted money on SIM cards, so be careful! #India #GirlsTrip #OverseasTrip
