Indian Visitor Highlights US Infrastructure and Shopping, Notes India's Hospitality
An Indian man visiting the US for the first time praised the country's extensive infrastructure, including large roads and good footpaths, and noted the massive scale of its growth. However, he felt that Indian hospitality, especially helpfulness at airports, was superior. He also observed that shopping in the US offered better value for clothes, shoes, electronics, and iPhones, which are cheaper there. Despite acknowledging the US's development, he expressed skepticism about India reaching the same level.
