Brother being a Christian from Kolkata was surprised after coming back home after working abroad and visiting the church and having to pay money to visit my own church. It's only happened after lock down and the church management has made that church a money making property now... having fashion shows and tourists activities etc . You made the right choice by turning back... because of the negative vibe . It's not about the money It's about the first vibe. Salute ❤

Hey james love these videos man. The barbers 380 was almost a fair price. Im indian, living jus near Kolkata, in a city called ranchi. Its much less developed than Kolkata, but i still pay 200, jus for haircut and facewash. The barber was highly respectable as well. Dont worry too much, if u feel something is fishy ask the locals who know English (before u buy or get any service or products)

Hey Kam, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with me, as well as watching the video 🤴 Kolkata was perhaps the most impressive modern city I visited in India, but I also liked exploring the local neighbourhood too. I can’t believe that the local barber was so humble and did such a good job for 380, when a tabouleh salad at the place I went to in the evening (200 meters away at Quest mall) cost 715, before service and tax! Thankfully the restaurant provided a couple of things on the house for me to try, as I would never have spent that kind of money whilst on travels (and, frankly, I find the local eateries - as with barbers - more interesting). I appreciate your tip and will check out some videos of Ranchi so I have a better understanding of where you’re from, and the city of Kolkata. Be sure to subscribe, in case you haven’t already, as I’d be keen to speak more in my coming videos. I head to the south of India after my brief stop in Vietnam 🇮🇳

@@InvestedAdventure oh yes sure. Ranchi is not more of a tourist place so don't worry you're not missing anything. It's around 400kms from Kolkata, and neighbouring state of the state in which Kolkata is located. All good brother. And yeah, 715 is costly but it highly depends on the restaurant as the ones which look standard and high class are generally expensive. But all good as long you feel that it was worth it, theres no harm. I hope you enjoy your stay, when you're back from Vietnam! Let me know if you need help ☺️🙏 and yes I'm subscribed:)

I was born and brough up in Kolkata but I have never visited Quest myself lmaooo. Didn't know there was a no cam policy In Quest 😭 P.s.: in case you want to get to know Kolkata better, I can assist you with that. There are many hidden gems here, not famous but behatiful places and eateries!.

Super, dhanyvad my friend! Shame we missed each other when I was there!

During the Raj Calcutta was the biggest and most important city in the world after London and till 1970 it was the biggest and most important city of Asia. From the 90s after the Soviet fell and America grew close to India, the Indian sentiment towards the British became softer with every passing years. The Biritsh looted trillions of dollars from this city and the Bengal area alone. Bengal was overlooked during droughts during ww2 and it became the worst drought and famine in the world. So, cities are friendly but as you go to the remote areas where modernity hasn't reached much there people maybe rude.

I see many people talking nonsense about barber price, well its absolutely reasonable. He was staying at South Kolkata near quest mall which is a posh area in Kolkata, plus it was an airconditioned Salon and they did face wash using Shehnaz Hussain products, that aint cheap!!!! Dont compare it with cheap fatichar barber shop you go to. They didnt overcharge, rather I would say they charged fair or even less. I know places in Kolkata that would charge even more in South Kolkata. So if you dont much about Kolkata, its better to talk less!!!!

Sir it's nice that you are at Kolkata. But all you gotta know that just because local language is Bengali that's why some food names are kinda different here, like when you see a pani puri it's actually Fuchka and when you call it samosa it's actually Singara!!
