These days, the experiences of foreign content creators visiting India or living here are being liked a lot on social media. In this connection, a new video of American citizen Macy Gonsalvez living in India is making a lot of noise on social media. While sharing a reel from her Instagram handle, Messi has mentioned 5 main things about India, which were completely different from her American lifestyle and which she was completely surprised to see.
Child’s gender reveal ban during pregnancy: Shocked to see the law
Messi mentioned a strict law of India at the top of his list. He told that in America, it is a very common thing to find out the gender of a child before birth and hold a ‘gender reveal party’. But in India, checking the sex of the fetus during pregnancy is completely illegal. According to Messi, initially when she came to know about this rule, she was shocked, because compared to America, this law and social system was completely new to her.
‘Habit to sleep at 9:30 pm and plans are made here at 9 pm’
Describing the big difference between the daily routine of America and India, Messi talked about the late-night lifestyle of India. He said that in America people go to sleep early in the evening after having dinner, but in India the night starts late. In India, if a plan is made to meet friends or acquaintances, it is usually decided only after 8:30 or 9:00 pm. Messi smilingly told that she herself used to sleep till 9:30 pm in America, so this late night culture of India was a big shock for her.
‘Turn on the geyser 15 minutes before bathing’
The method of water heater i.e. geyser used in Indian homes made Messi smile the most. He humorously told that in India, to take bath with hot water, one has to switch on the geyser at least 10 to 15 minutes in advance and then wait. Whereas in America, as soon as you turn on the tap or shower, hot water starts coming immediately. He described this habit of Indian homes as a very funny and unique experience.
10 minutes superfast delivery won hearts
While some things surprised him, India’s quick-commerce i.e. 10-15 minutes instant delivery service won his heart. Messi praised India’s online delivery ecosystem and said that here everything from grocery to ready-made food reaches the doorstep in just a few minutes. It is difficult to imagine such a fast delivery service in a country like America, so he liked this facility very much.
Affordable Maid and Cook Service: “Grandma’s gonna get a shock!”
In the fifth and last point of the list, Messi mentioned the household help available in India. He told that in comparison to America, it is quite easy and pocket-friendly to have maids for cooking and cleaning in India. It is common for most middle-class and working families here to hire a part-time or full-time maid. Making fun of this, Messi wrote in the caption that if his grandmother came to know that maids and cooks are available for household work here at such a low budget, she would literally have a heart attack!
