Dirty India

What a load of rubbish....the place is far less clean than that! Incredible and indescribable filth, mirrored by the chaotic state of the airports. Beggars, mosquitoes, snakes, toilets from hell, squalor, and on. And that's just the passenger terminals.

And yet....India has a charm and an edge which makes it a must-visit place. Polite and helpful people live there, trying to get to grips with an amazingly convoluted bureaucracy. Working there as FD is definitely a challenge, but don't write it off despite all the above-mentioned. And it is far safer for white-skinned Europeans and Americans than most parts of the Middle East. (Main danger is a dodgy curry or samosa!)
