Some
might say "India is a piece of shit", and in some respects this it
true. For example, there are no bins and so people drop litter
everywhere, the gutters are clogged up with litter and rancid water.
Men openly urinate into the gutters ALL DAY LONG. Women squat and piss
in the gutters quite gracefully.
There
are animals roaming around and shitting everywhere. Cows are sacred
(according to Hindus not McDonalds) and they shit the biggest, one
might ask is this holy shit?
A
fellow travller saw a toddler do a shit in the middle of the road, it
had barely touched the ground before a dog eagerly ate it up. As you
can imagine, all the piss and shit creates a certain aroma, you could
say India stinks of shit.
The
river Ganges is a holy river and guess what... it is full of shit too!
You don't see terds floating by but you wouldn't drink that water and
you certainly wouldn't bathe in it. They do. Millions of them, I saw it
with my own eyes. I can only assume they have a super tough immune
system, not like us pussy white folk.
I think if you've survived the porter-loos of festivlas you will survive the culture shock of India.
Enjoy your UK tap water, I'm off to catch Cholera in the Ganges. Namasta.
