Definitely India.

I lived in New Delhi for between one and a half years and two. I'm white and didn't know anyone there before going for my first time. Now, in just under two weeks, I'll be back in South Asia for my fifth time in less than three weeks.

It has its upsides and downsides and is by no means a perfect or wonderful country. However, I like the place enough that I don't think having to stay there for the rest of my life could in any way be construed as suffering.

The Africans I've met in America seem humble and kind (although the ones that can make it to America are obviously the best of their continent). I'd say Africa for the adventure.

Living in India is honestly pretty great, provided you have money. The biggest frustrations I've had are just in relation to the culture and sheer number of people. For instance, trying to take a ride or commute on the Delhi Metro can be absolute misery around holidays or at rush hour. Indians have no patience or manners and you basically have to fight your way off rail carriages to get onto the platform and off to your next destination.

Other than that, I got used to the food and water pretty quickly. I never saw anybody poop outside in Delhi, although public urination is common off multi-lane roads and in open latrines in poorer neighborhoods.

You can get a really fucking amazing apartment in a safe, clean neighborhood for less than $500 or $600 per month. One of the flats I checked out last winter had two bedrooms, a wrap-around balcony on the top floor of the building, included furniture, and had great marble floors for less than $500.

Wish I had some pics of my ex-girlfriend's place, it was fucking amazing.

Again, just depends on where you're at. The mind-blowing thing about India is how poverty and wealth can co-exist in such close capacity. My ex-girlfriend lived in a neighborhood called Safdarjung Enclave. Her block was lined with luxury and foreign-made cars. I think her apartment cost around a million American dollars and was worked over by a maid. Her family also had a chauffeur as well as another property in Vasant Kunj.

But if you walked for five minutes out of the A-Block gate, you'd run into a dirty, crowded road where pavement dwellers sometimes took baths in mudpuddles.

>>24681156

Bit of a long story. My first girlfriend was from Delhi, so the first time I went there was basically just for her. After that I left for a while, came back, and worked. There wasn't any specific purpose behind all of this, but it was fun and a good way to distract myself from university for a while.

The only place I ever saw people pooping outside was in Dharavi. Considering that most of India is rural and there's not a whole lot for outsiders or expats to do in villages, I never ran across much of any of that stuff.

Indians are great, by the way, as long as you fall in with the right crowd and aren't trying to become best friends with Rakesh the Ragpicker.

That's what an IQ in the 60-75 range looks like. It's bizarre to see it in person. You start to understand really fast why every race that's ever come in contact with them has thought they were less than human and made slaves out of them.

the reason blacks in America are so uppity is because they have a lot of white admixture which bumps their IQs up 20-30 points.

I just find it strange that your selling point for a country is essentially "avoid civilization" and "look at how nice their trees are".

Fair enough, but I'm not aiming to convince anyone that they need to go to the country. I found my experiences there to have been worthwhile. I liked India, but that doesn't mean you would or should.

On that note, I actually like the cities quite a lot. As fond as I am of Delhi, Mumbai was fucking fantastic. Colaba is great and feels like an Indian version of New York with all the tall buildings and nice stores.

It's not "avoid civilization", it's "avoid trash".

Folks just weren't as outwardly friendly or helpful as in other parts of India. That's not to say Kashmiris were all bad or mean or cruel, but I felt much less welcomed there than I had in other states before. The fact that I was in the Muslim part of the state during the SIege of Gaza in 2014 probably didn't help.

I mean, stuff would just happen and some people would have a peculiar or passive aggressive attitude. For instance, I'd sometimes have people sitting on walls or benches spit on the ground directly in front of me, or storekeepers would refuse to acknowledge my presence and would ignore me if I asked for directions. When I went hiking in the mountains, I was told by a number of young people not to tell strangers that I was American. I also had a couple of mountain guides treat me like shit until I asked them for a Qu'ran, recited the shahada, and pretended to be Muslim.

Yelling "salaam aleykum!" at everyone I saw helped out a lot, as it does in most Muslim areas anywhere in the world.

>>24681697

Pretty much this. I wouldn't say that poor Indians are trashy in the same sense as rednecks, but they are uneducated, poor, and lacking in many regards. Foreigners also tend to attract the worst of the worst, since white skin is associated with wealth.

A small, Anglo-Saxon elite directed American labor into building the infrastructure.

Black Africans are backwards, but upper-class Indians are incredibly intelligent. Chess and the zero were developed by Indians.

The country was ruled by Muslims for hundreds of years, and then by Brits who deliberately weakened the economy. Then once they got independence, Muslims stole a third of their country (Pakistan and Bangladesh), but they still produce a ton of engineers and scientists.

The reason it's so hard to get anything done in India in terms of cleaning up is democracy, which came from the West.

Case in point: If China (not a democracy) wants to clean up a slum, they just force everyone to move into modern high rises while they build sewers and power grids.

Bogota was quite alright, my friend. If my understanding of the situation in Colombia is correct, very few foreigners have been kidnapped around the country in recent years. However, you really do have to take precautions in regards to safety. There are a lot of nighttime muggings, but you can minimize your risk and losses by using common sense. I never had anything bad happen to me, but I did meet a few people who had been robbed at gun- or knifepoint.

Met this one Aussie who got wasted off his ass in Medellin's Pablado, got into a taxi that wasn't a taxi, and had everything down to his shoes stolen.

10/10 place, crime aside. Went to Colombia on a whim and fucking loved the place.

>>24682109

What's interesting is that I had also been in Bosnia and Turkey and the UAE shortly before. Literally nobody gave a fuck in either country - or if they did give a fuck, you didn't notice.

I think the separatist movement in Kashmir, coupled with its proximity to the Pakistan border, intensifies these kinds of feelings and has created a very distinct "we're Muslims!" identity versus "we're Indians." From what I can gather, Muslims in the rest of the country aren't too fond of Kashmiris.

Most of the Muslim-majority countries I've visited have had extremely hospitable, kind, and generous locals. It's just a part of the culture. Unfortunately, it doesn't excuse a lot of the backwards attitudes and mindsets held by many, even if they treat respectful foreigners well.

South Asian Muslims outside of most of India seem way more prone to getting their collective panties in a bunch about issues like Palestine. I think the reason is the same as what you touched on, in addition to identity politics (which of course tie in with stability).
