How to be a good guest

Besides the usual guidelines for How to be a good guest:

  • Remove your shoes while entering your hosts house even when not asked.
  • Be very patient.
  • India is a foodoholic society. Indians love food and if you are offered with food, which you will be many times, be brave and try.
  • Eat with your right hand or use a fork and spoon. Eating with the left hand is frowned upon (same as in Muslim countries and many parts of Africa). But once you have started eating with your right hand, please use only your left hand to serve yourself or lift your glass of water. Indians do not eat from plates and bowls touched with a jutha (anything put in your mouth) hand.
  • Indians value punctuality, so if you cannot make it do let you host know in advance and email or SMS or phone call would do. This is highly appreciated.
  • Indians tend to give extra deference and respect to elders - even if they are not related to each other or even if they disagree with elders. Be mindful of that respect when conversing with anybody older than yourself.
