I don't say this lightly, but India is the last place on my list to visit after many documentaries and redditor stories. Some places are beautiful, but I am not sponsoring the crap that goes on there. The last documentary I watched was about how the majority of the bus drivers in a particular area rape little boys with nowhere else to go for a buck or two, and it's just a normal Tuesday. The crazy gathering around of beautiful women to post online that it's their girlfriend, the general rape culture in those popular tourist places like Bangladesh. All of the pollution they cause to the ocean, the disregard for the laborers lives who are regularly lost when decommissioning ships in the shipyards...one of the scam capitals of the world...nah I'm good. I know my country has a lot of issues, but there are better countries than that to contribute to. Also, I realize I may be downvoted as this is all generalizing, but I know of few other "1st world" countries that have more glaring issues than many places of India.
