I went to India a few months ago out of curiosity/spite since everyone on YouTube always warns you not to travel there. They were probably right in hindsight, but I plan to go back again this winter because I actually enjoyed being there. This will probably sound like cliché hippie backpacker bullshit, but India has a really unique balance of chaos and tranquility. You can be completely barraged by noise while walking around a city at one moment and watching entire cities go by on a train in near silence at another moment. The sheer size of the country plus the variety of biomes and cultures is underrated, there's a vast amount of history everywhere you look, the cost of living is cheap, and locals generally speak good English and usually are hospitable. But, there's a lot of scammers/beggars, traffic laws are nonexistent, air quality is shit, hygiene/cleanliness standards are awful, you WILL get food poisoning at one point or another, and you'll most likely have a few near-death experiences also.
I wish more people here went there so I could read more horror story greentexts(or just interesting greentexts in general) instead of the usual boring "oh no i spilled spaghetti in front of a girl in Japan, it's over" posts that endlessly plague /trv/
TL;DR
>go if you can tolerate discomfort and want a unique experience
>don't go if you can't tolerate discomfort and don't want to take risks
