Don’t go. Pretty much this, ^^^ if you have a choice. I worked there several different times back in the day. Back when it was Bombay. Maybe it's better now. I'd have a sore throat within 2 days due to the air pollution and smog.

One of the nastiest places I have ever been for work. Watch where you eat, I lost 30 pounds in two months. People will try to rip you off, don't bring anything you don't want to lose. You will find so!e nice parts but the call centers and IT jobs were in an older part of town. I was there in 2015

According to UNICEF, India had the highest number of people in the world – about 620 million – who defecated in the open, with the vast majority in rural areas. Open defecation is a major public health hazard, especially for children who risk catching potentially deadly diseases like diarrhea. According to UNICEF, fecal contamination and poor sanitation is a leading cause of child mortality, disease, under nutrition and stunting. Open defecation also exposes women and girls to the danger of physical attacks and rape, and they often have to wait until dark to relieve themselves. https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/05/asia/india-modi-open-defecation-free-intl-hnk-scli/index.html

I might be going there to work with/open up a new sales channel.
Would definitely enjoy seeing the Taj Mahal so I would have to add that on.

`We took the airplane there about 15 years ago. First, we stopped in Delhi for a few days. We were told not to eat any raw vegetables and keep our mouths shut when showering. We stayed at a Hyatt. Stunk like hell outside. I looked outside where they were working on repairing a street. The workers were using small hammers to break up large rocks to make gravel. People would be walking along a sidewalk and then just stop to take a piss. We then went to Mumbai. Stayed at a really nice hotel. The grounds keepers were using scissors to trim the grass. The restaurant in the hotel had an American hamburger on the menu. I figured at a nice place like this it has to be good. I got sick as a dog for 3 days. India is the sh*t . hole of the world. People using cow sh*t to cook with. Everything stinks and makes you sick. The only thing that won't is Kingfisher beer. If you go to the Taj Mahal, make sure you get an air-conditioned ride.

Can you look up Steve Johnson when you get there and tell him to stop calling?
