FOREIGNER in INDIA: BANGALORE LIFE AFTER SHUT DOWN | TRAVEL VLOG IV
2,258FOREIGNER in INDIA: BANGALORE LIFE AFTER SHUT DOWN. This is my 3rd year of living as a foreigner in India. It does bring some challenges in the current situation.With the current pandemic the Karnataka government has taken strict measures to keep everybody safe. This is the first time I'm experiencing a complete shut down of Bangalore as a foreigner in India. Compared to the Netherlands there are a couple of things that are different being a foreigner in India during this situation in Bangalore. Currently as a foreigner in India I'm mostly struggling with the uncertainty of having clean water, the supply of food in Bangalore and how to get enough hygiene products. Obviously I'm also taking my responsibility as a foreigner in India to prevent getting anybody else sick in Bangalore, as well as myself, by self quarantine. My friend Kritika Goel, who's currently in the US, also pitches in on how safe it is to travel right now.

Q (Why) Are you vegetarian?
A I'm vegetarian but not strict. I don't eat any meat, fish, cooked/boiled or fried eggs. I gradually became a vegetarian over the course of 15 years because I disliked the taste of meat more and more. After doing a yoga teacher training in 2015 I also quit fish and the eggs. No matter my food preferences I have no issues with other people not being vegetarian. I don't judge others and kind of expect the same favor from others concerning my own food preferences. It makes for a more friendly world :-)
Q Why do you usually travel alone?
A Because my friends have jobs with limited holidays, kids and partners. Also I really like exploring on my own.
Q Why do you love India so much?
