Hey guys! I'm 18, and I'm going to be traveling to India alone for the first time. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions, or anything I should keep in mind? My parents (well, my mother) have been bombarding me with all kinds of information - and I'm a little nervous, lol. I'm going to be flying via British Airways, with a layover in London, and then to Mumbai, and then from there I have a Air India flight to Nagpur. Just general tips would be appreciated, and if anyone can explain the immigration, customs (green and red channel?), and how to get to the domestic terminal when i get to mumbai that would be even more appreciated! Haha, thanks guys! BTW, I speak passable Marathi - I usually have to think about it for a second, and my pronunciations are probably filled with an American accent, but I can understand all of it. I can understand basic HIndi, but can't speak it. I guess my main worry is that I'm not going to be able to communicate with people there if I need help, and idk, i don't mean to sound ignorant, but I'm afraid that people are going to know (they always know) that I'm a foreigner and try to rip me off. Any suggestions owuld be great! Thanks!... Read More »
