QA问答：为什么人们离开他们在美国的奢侈生活而回到印度？

Kirti Sharma
Many factors considered here:
Indian people are emotional, relationships are more valuable for them they leave their country or motherland to make enough money to provide luxurious life to their family so when they achieve their goal they go back to their country and start happy life with their family, parents, friends where they spend their childhood. Not only the Indian but every person is attached his native land.
You can see some foreigners also set up in India because they like its culture, moral values, people, their nature, Historical places where they can learn and research a lot.
SO it’s just depends on the persons nature what he/she wants luxuries or love in his country. According to Currency values Indians can make enough money within 10 years to buy every luxury in their native land so if someone can enjoy that luxurious life in his own country with his loved one’s relatives why should he live separately in other country.

这里考虑了很多因素：
印度人很情绪化，人际关系对他们来说更有价值，他们离开自己的国家或祖国去赚足够的钱来为家人提供奢侈的生活，所以当他们实现目标后，他们会回到自己的国家，与家人、父母开始幸福的生活，与和他们度过童年的朋友生活。不仅是印度人，每个人都依附于自己的祖国。
你可以看到一些外国人也在印度定居，因为他们喜欢它的文化、道德价值观、人民、他们的自然、他们可以学习和研究很多历史名胜。
因此，这仅取决于人的天性，他/​​她在他的国家想要什么奢侈品或什么样的爱。根据货币价值，印度人可以在 10 年内赚到足够的钱在他们的祖国购买所有奢侈品，所以如果有人可以在他自己的国家与他所爱的人、亲戚一起享受奢华的生活，他为什么要在其他国家过着这种分离的生活。

Family, Friends & Life of luxury
(Good food if I may add)
I’ve been living in Raleigh, North Carolina for the past 4 years, recently moved from Bangalore, India.
Unlike many Indians living here in America since a decade, I am relatively new and have a pretty good idea about current life in India vs here in America. I am in my 30’s and not many people leave at this point, but I speak to a lot of folks in their 40’s and aware of why they leave.
Loneliness
There are a lot of documentaries on YouTube about ladies talking about loneliness once it’s evening and there’s nothing much to do. No community, no family. The dark cold silent nights kill you. Superficial friends you have because they are also in a similar situation, and you need familiar faces and food. Spouse working visa is hard to come back, the whole visa process is so cumbersome. It gets dark by 3 – 4pm in winter, the temperatures drop to 1–2 degrees (Talking about east coast). This a hard life, no one in India can even fathom this, because we are blessed with 6pm sunsets and always surrounded by humans. Hate it or love it, some/any human interaction feels sane.
Ageing Parents
Okay so everybody knows how screwed up the medical system here in America here. Ridiculously expensive and no one has an idea why they are being charged so much. No transparency, call the insurance about charges breakdown and you are stuck on calls for forever. To give you an idea, my general physician charges $500 (That’s like Rs. 40,000) per consultancy (just to consult!), since I have insurance, I pay $50. Compare this to India. World Class care at an affordable price. So, getting your parents here is not an option for many, only son situations (given India’s cultural expectation), most head back.
What is luxury anyway?
You tell me what’s easier?
We need groceries at least once or twice a week. In winters, I dress up like I am going for a war to get bread & Milk. I wear boots, a cap and 2-layer sweaters just for this. Rush from car to the store because it’s that cold, then take a long walk inside, till I reach the end of this massive, huge superstore just to pick milk.
vs
In a click of a button, in just a minute, order milk & bread and have that delivered to your place in less than 15 minutes.
This time when I visited India, I really felt like Indians are living the Arab sheiks, people at your beck and call made accessible by technology. Need a massage? Urban Clap or a parlor lady comes home, need food? Italian you said? Order and it’s here.
Labor power is huge in India. In America you can buy expensive capital goods like Home, pool, TV but it’s all do-it yourself. In India its opposite, things cost more, people cost less.
The medical care in India is unparallel. Which is why India today has a huge market for medical tourism. You have a new baby, an ageing parent, so it is easy to get full-time help and you can afford to pay him/her. Not here in America.
The “Cultured” Indians
This is a minority, but somehow some Indians who have lost touch with India in the last couple of years haven’t seen it explode in every way possible, are reminiscent of their childhood, want their kids to have the same childhood unlike the “spoilt” kids of America. It’s all a perspective.
Visa Issues (Specific to America)
Every 3 years on H1b (Most Indians on this) there is a chance of rejection, I know a friend’s friend who came to Chennai for stamping, and they refused his visa, and he couldn’t go back. He had been living there for the last 10 years. His kids were suddenly displaced from school, he could not hold his job longer, his friends in America had to sell his newly purchased home. Honestly, this is a one in a million scenario, but this keeps us up at night. Most Indians don’t buy good furniture too, because it’s like, who knows, what if we need to sell it and go. This fear is always there in every Indians mind. The fear of being suddenly uprooted.
Food
Lack of good flavorful food. Everything’s dumbed down in taste, loaded with cream to make it palatable for Americas. Frozen chutneys and instant coffee sold as south Indian filter coffee. Indian food is a joke in America. Of course, maybe not the case in big cities like New York and Seattle. But by and large, food is a disappointment. It’s better to cook at home.
Having said all this, I would continue living here because,
There is dignity of labor. Yes, it’s a do-it-yourself country because of the steep labor cost, so as a skilled worker, I have work life balance, colleagues respect my space.
The flip side of loneliness is independence. Independence from family problems & drama. Freedom to truly live a life I want as a woman.
Women safety. Yes, there is gun violence and serial killers. But this is a minority, by and large it’s very safe. In my 4 years here, not a single man has made me uncomfortable by staring. I dress weather appropriate. That to me is freedom.
Basics are met. In India, buying a home and car is still a huge deal for so many. Because of the intense competition and abundant supply of labor, its harder to make money. America has thrice the land of India & 1/3rd the population. So basic living necessities like a big, beautiful home, a car, all these things are easy. Unless you really fuck up and get into drugs, even a mediocre person can lead a decent life.
Buying a home, any legal so transparent and smooth. No risk and uncertainty of being defrauded. Most people trust each other and are honest. Honesty is the default mode of behavior.
Albeit just 8 months a year, but still abundant greenery, availability of beautiful parks and gardens and national parks which are safe, clean, and easily accessible.
(2 hrs. from home, blue ridge parkway, this beautiful hike, not crowded)
All the end of the day, it’s all about choice.
What do you value more?

家人、朋友和奢华生活
（好的食物，如果我可以添加）
在过去的 4 年里，我一直住在北卡罗来纳州的罗利，最近从印度的班加罗尔搬来。
与十年来在美国生活的许多印度人不同，我是一个相对较新的人，并且对目前印度和美国的生活有一个很好的了解。我已经 30 多岁了，此时离开的人并不多，但我与很多 40 多岁的人交谈过，我知道他们离开的原因。
寂寞
YouTube 上有很多关于女士们在晚上谈论孤独的纪录片，而且没有什么可做的。没有社区，就没有家庭。黑暗寒冷寂静的夜晚杀死你。你有肤浅的朋友，因为他们也有类似的情况，你需要熟悉的面孔和食物。配偶工作签证很难回来，整个签证过程非常繁琐。冬天下午 3 点到 4 点天黑了，气温下降到 1-2 度（谈论东海岸）。这是一种艰苦的生活，在印度没有人能理解这一点，因为我们有幸享受下午 6 点的日落，并且总是被人类包围。讨厌这样的生活或喜欢这样的生活，一些/任何人际交往都感觉理智。
年迈的父母
好吧，所以每个人都知道美国这里的医疗系统是多么的糟糕。贵得离谱，没人知道为什么要收这么多钱。没有透明度，打电话给保险公司询问费用明细，你就会永远被困在电话中。为了给你一个想法，我的全科医生每次咨询收费 500 美元（相当于 40,000 卢比）（只是咨询！），因为我有保险，所以我支付 50 美元。将此与印度进行比较。在印度以实惠的价格享受世界一流的护理服务。所以，让你的父母来这里不是很多人的选择，只有儿子的情况（考虑到印度的文化期望），大多数人都会回去。
到底什么是奢侈品？
你告诉我什么更容易？
我们每周至少需要一次或两次购物。在冬天，我打扮得像要去打仗一样去买面包和牛奶。为此，我穿靴子、帽子和两层毛衣。因为太冷而从车里冲到商店，然后在里面走了很长一段路，直到我到达这个巨大的超级市场的​​尽头只是为了挑选牛奶。
对比
在印度，只需单击一个按钮，只需一分钟，即可订购牛奶和面包，并在 15 分钟内送货上门。
这次去印度，真切感受到印度人过着阿拉伯酋长的生活，科技让人们随叫随到。需要按摩吗？Urban Clap 或客厅女士回家，需要食物吗？你说意大利语？就在这里订购它。
印度的劳动力是巨大的。在美国，你可以购买昂贵的资本品，如家庭、游泳池、电视，但这些都是你自己动手做的。在印度恰恰相反，买东西成本更高，人成本更低。
印度的医疗保健是无与伦比的。这就是为什么今天的印度拥有巨大的医疗市场。你有一个新生儿，一个年迈的父母，所以很容易得到全职帮助，而且你有能力支付他/她的费用。而在美国不是这样。
“有教养”的印度人
这是少数，但不知何故，一些在过去几年与印度失去联系的印度人并没有看到它以各种可能的方式爆发，他们回忆起自己的童年，希望他们的孩子拥有与“被宠坏”的童年相同的童年就像美国的孩子们那样。这都是一个观点。
签证问题（特定于美国）
每 3 年 H1b（大多数印度人都持此签证）就有被拒绝的可能，我认识一个朋友的朋友来金奈盖章，他们拒绝了他的签证，他也回不去了。在过去的 10 年里，他一直住在那里。他的孩子们突然辍学，他的工作无法再继续下去，他在美国的朋友不得不卖掉他新买的房子。老实说，这是百万分之一的情况，但这让我们彻夜难眠。大多数印度人也不买好家具，因为如果我们需要再卖掉它怎么办。这种恐惧一直存在于每个印度人的脑海中。害怕突然被连根拔起。
食物
缺乏美味的食物。每样东西的味道都被简化了，加入了奶油以使其适合美洲人的口味。冷冻酸辣酱和速溶咖啡作为南印度咖啡出售。印度菜在美国就是个笑话。当然，在纽约和西雅图这样的大城市可能并非如此。但总的来说，食物令人失望。最好在家做饭。
说了这么多，我会继续住在这里，因为，
有劳动的尊严。是的，由于劳动力成本高，这是一个自己动手的国家，所以作为一名技术工人，我有工作与生活的平衡，同事尊重我的空间，我得到高薪过上体面的生活。
孤独的另一面是独立。从家庭问题和生活中独立出来。作为一个女人，真正过上我想要的生活的自由。
妇女安全。是的，有枪支暴力和连环杀手。但这是少数，总的来说还是很安全的。在我在这里的 4 年里，没有一个男人让我因凝视而感到不舒服。我穿着合适的衣服。这对我来说就是自由。
满足基本要求。在印度，买房买车对很多人来说仍然是一件大事。由于竞争激烈，劳动力供应充足，赚钱更难。美国拥有印度三倍的土地和 1/3 的人口。所以基本的生活必需品，比如一个又大又漂亮的房子，一辆汽车，所有这些都很容易。除非你真的搞砸了吸毒，否则即使是一个平庸的人也能过上体面的生活。
买房子，任何法律都那么透明和顺利。没有被骗的风险和不确定性。大多数人彼此信任并且诚实。诚实是默认的行为模式。
尽管一年只有 8 个月，但仍然绿意盎然，美丽的公园和花园以及国家公园安全、清洁且交通便利。
（离家 2 小时，蓝岭公园路，这条美丽的远足路线，不拥挤）
归根结底，一切都与选择有关。
你更看重什么？

Vishnu Nair
I am currently in the US and will definitely move back to India within 5–6 years. The reason why I think so
In India, I feel strong. Seriously I do, I feel like a king or I would use the term relaxed. Back here in the US, I am afraid of guns. You don’t know when can someone pull a gun out at you.
I feel connected with my loved ones when I am in India. The sense of social belonging is quite high when I am in India. But here in the US, that feeling is missing. How hard I try, the sense of belonging never happens.
India definitely got its own problems with basic necessities like electricity and water, but we will always have a way to live around those deficiencies and still feel happy. Once in a while, I now wish for a power outage & all batteries out so that I can swiftly get out of the gadget world.
Here it comes…INDIAN FOOD!!…. Trust me nothing in this world will beat that. We have all sorts of flavors in our food... it’s beyond words.. Perhaps I do believe we all live and work for food..everything else is secondary. In the US, you will never get any of these flavors except tons of sweetness in breakfast. You will definitely feel it missing unless you live in places like Edison, NJ where it is basically like a mini India.
The US is frantically materialistic. People buy things even when they don’t need them. Lifestyle inflation is catching up in India as well. But it’s a notch up. Many people buy the latest gadgets and latest cars even though the need doesn’t exist in the first place. I am trying my best to distance myself from it and so far have been quite successful in it.
In India, if I go for a walk in the morning I will see a lot of other people and eventually we will end up having coffee or tea from the nearby shop. It is very easy to foster a relationship there because of the commonality in the subject of discussions, be it politics, movies or sports. Back in the US, the coffee part hardly happens and even if it happens it is extremely difficult to engage in conversations as sports and politics are completely different from India. I absolutely don't know anything about NBA, NFL, or March Madness. Movies are the only subject I can connect with.
If you have a decent job and a nice house, or even better, if you and your wife are working, then India is the best place to live. You will never feel a place as vibrant as India. While going to New York, people here in the US will always speak high about the vibe. I can without any question say that many Indian cities carry that vibe.

我目前在美国，并且肯定会在 5-6 年内搬回印度。我这么认为的理由
在印度，我感觉很坚强。说真的，我觉得自己像个国王，否则我会用放松这个词。回到美国这里，我害怕枪支。你不知道什么时候会有人向你拔枪。
当我在印度时，我感到与我所爱的人有联系。我在印度的时候社会归属感很高。但在美国，这种感觉是缺失的。我多么努力，归属感从来没有过。
印度在水电等基本必需品方面肯定有自己的问题，但我们总能找到解决这些不足的办法，并且仍然感到快乐。偶尔，我现在希望停电并耗尽所有电池，这样我就可以迅速离开电子产品世界。
印度食品！...... 相信我，这个世界上没有什么能比得上它。我们的食物有各种各样的口味……无法言喻……也许我确实相信我们都为食物而生活和工作……其他一切都是次要的。在美国，除了早餐中的大量甜味外，您永远不会得到任何这些口味。除非你住在像新泽西州爱迪生这样的地方，否则你肯定会觉得美味的食物不见了，那里基本上就像一个迷你的印度。
美国是疯狂的物质主义者。人们即使在不需要的时候也会买东西。生活方式的膨胀也在印度迎头赶上。但这是一个档次。许多人购买最新的小工具和最新的汽车，即使一开始并不存在这种需求。我正在尽最大努力使自己与这种方式保持距离，到目前为止，我在这方面取得了相当大的成功。
在印度，如果我早上去散步，我会看到很多其他人，最终我们会喝到附近商店的咖啡或茶。由于讨论的主题具有共同性，无论是政治、电影还是体育，在那里建立关系非常容易。回到美国，喝咖啡的部分几乎不会发生，即使发生了，也很难进行对话，因为体育和政治与印度完全不同。我对 NBA、NFL 或三月疯狂一无所知。电影是我唯一可以联系的主题。
如果你有一份体面的工作和一栋漂亮的房子，或者更好，如果你和你的妻子都在工作，那么印度是最适合居住的地方。您永远不会感受到像印度这样充满活力的地方。去纽约时，美国这里的人总是对纽约的氛围赞不绝口。我可以毫无疑问地说，许多印度城市都有这种氛围。

Shivee Chauhan
Mainly because they are done being called “Aliens” in a country in which they have spent years and years of their lives. People don’t come back to India, they come back home.
True story.
Imagine.
It’s 7:00 AM on a Wednesday.
You are running late to catch your 7:12 AM train into the city. You put on your stockings, cardigan, jacket, scarf, gloves, and ear muffs because it’s -4C outside. Frost bite is a real possibility. Your toes might just get so frozen that they might fall off.
It snowed last night , so don’t forget to put on your snow boots. You don’t want to lose your balance on the black ice and break your ankle.
You open the door, and it’s dark outside. The Sun rises only at 7:20–7:30 AM. You start running towards the train station, because trains are generally on time, and you don’t want to miss this train, else the next connection is only in half an hour.
You reach the train station. The train is running 20 mins late. So you just stand on the train station and try not to freeze.
You leave work at around 6:00PM. It’s already dark outside. The Sun sets at around 4:00 PM. You reach home and start preparing for your dinner.
You have dinner at around 7:30 PM, and start to relax. By the way, let’s not forget it’s very cold outside and it has started to snow again. You are not going to step out of your home anyway. The yellow lights make you further depressed and sad. You put on another romcom on Netflix and pour some Wine.
Life doesn’t get more depressing than this.
Imagine
It’s November 2016. Thus far you have spent over 3 years in the US. You are closely following the presidential elections, because it’s your country. You have your opinions on Gun control, abortion laws, rights of the immigrants. You want to matter.
You want to belong.
But in reality, you are just an alien in the US. Your opinions, thoughts, desire to belong means nothing to US.
How does your opinion on Abortion law matter? They say.
Go back and talk about social economic matters of your own country. They say.
You spent $70k when you went to the Ivy League University at US.
You are using your skills to make the US economy and lives of US citizens better.
You pay taxes, including SSN and Medicare to the US.
You bought products made in the US.
You bought properties in the US.
None of this matters.
You were, and still are, an alien.
Imagine
It’s May 2014. You are 24.
It’s Lok Sabha elections in India. It’s the first time ever that you are eligible to vote in the elections.
You have your own opinions on the right wing and the left wing. You have identified the candidate that you want to vote for.
Just one problem.
You are in the US. So you post your opinions on Facebook, like any other insane twenty-year-old.
How does it matter what you think? You left your motherland to stay in a foreign country, they say.
You do not belong, neither to India, nor to the US.
It’s May 2019.
You are 29. It’s Lok Sabha elections, but you can’t vote. So why do you care?
Imagine.
You come up with a great idea to launch a business. It’s going to help so many people. You are absolutely delighted by the idea.
You meet an immigration attorney to identify if there is any way for you to open your own company.
Your visa is tied to your job, you are told. Doing anything not related to your job will put your status in the country in jeopardy.
Alright, once I get my permanent residence I’ll start a business, you think.
Just one problem, the queue to get permanent residence in US is 150 years long for Indians.
You are done being a prisoner in a prison of your own making.
All in all, people do not come back to India, they come back home. Because we belong here. We have a social life which is absolutely amazing and the tropical weather all year round.
In your career you are bounded by your own imagination, and you can absolutely start your own thing whenever you want to.
Let’s not even talk about money, because have you seen everyone taking international vacations to destinations of their choosing? Maybe it was a little too expensive when our parents were growing up, but now it’s absolutely achievable even when you are working in India.
India has many things which US doesn’t offer.
But at the top, it would always be the feeling of belonging.

主要是因为他们在一个他们生活了多年的国家不再被称为“外人” 。人们不会回到印度，他们会回家。
真实的故事。
想象一下。
现在是星期三早上 7:00。
你要赶早上 7:12 的火车进城了。你穿上长袜、开衫、夹克、围巾、手套和耳罩，因为外面的温度为 -4C。冻伤是一种真实的可能性。您的脚趾可能会冻得掉下来。
昨晚下雪了，所以别忘了穿上你的雪地靴。您不想在厚厚的冰上失去平衡并摔断脚踝。
你打开门，外面天黑了。太阳只在早上 7:20–7:30 升起。你开始朝火车站跑去，因为火车一般都很准点，你不想错过这趟火车，否则下一班只有半小时。
你到达火车站。火车晚点 20 分钟。所以你就站在火车站上，尽量不要冻着。
您在下午 6:00 左右下班。外面已经天黑了。太阳在下午 4:00 左右落山。您到家并开始准备晚餐。
您在晚上 7:30 左右吃晚餐，然后开始放松。顺便说一下，别忘了外面很冷，而且又开始下雪了。无论如何，您都不会走出家门。黄色的灯光让你更加压抑和悲伤。你在Netflix上再看一部浪漫喜剧，然后倒点酒。
生活没有比这更令人沮丧的了。
想象
现在是 2016 年 11 月。到目前为止，您已经在美国度过了 3 年多。您正在密切关注总统选举，因为这是您的国家。你对枪支管制、堕胎法、移民权利有自己的看法。你想要你的想法被重视。
你想要归属感。
但实际上，你在美国只是一个外人。你的意见、想法、归属感对我们来说毫无意义。
您对堕胎法的看法有何影响？他们说。
回去谈谈自己国家的社会经济问题。他们说。
当你去美国的常春藤联盟大学时，你花了 7 万美元。
您正在利用自己的技能改善美国经济和美国公民的生活。
您向美国缴纳税款，包括 SSN 和 Medicare。
您购买了美国制造的产品。
您在美国购买了房产。
这些都不重要。
你曾经是，现在仍然是外人。
想象
现在是 2014 年 5 月。你 24 岁。
这是印度的Lok Sabha选举。这是您有史以来第一次有资格在选举中投票。
您对右翼和左翼有自己的看法。您已确定要投票给的候选人。
只有一个问题。
你在美国。所以你在 Facebook 上发表你的意见，就像其他二十岁的疯子一样。
你怎么想有什么关系呢？他们会说，你离开祖国留在国外。
你不属于，既不属于印度，也不属于美国。
现在是 2019 年 5 月。
你今年 29 岁。现在是 Lok Sabha 选举，但你不能投票。那你为什么这么关心呢？
想象。
你想出了一个开展业务的好主意。它会帮助很多人。你对这个想法感到非常高兴。
您会见一位移民律师，以确定您是否有任何方式可以开设自己的公司。
你被告知，你的签证与你的工作挂钩。做任何与您的工作无关的事情都会危及您在该国的地位。
好吧，一旦我获得永久居留权，我就会开始创业，你想。
只有一个问题，对于印度人来说，获得美国永久居留权的队列长达 150 年。
你已经成为自己建造的监狱中的囚犯了。
总而言之，人们不会回到印度，他们会回家。因为我们属于这里。我们的社交生活绝对令人惊叹，全年都是热带气候。
在你的职业生涯中，你被自己的想象力所束缚，你完全可以随时开始自己的事情。
我们就不谈钱了，因为你有没有看到每个人都去自己选择的目的地进行国际度假？也许在我们父母年长的时候，这有点太贵了，但现在即使你在印度工作，这也是完全可以实现的。
印度有很多美国没有的东西。
但最终，永远是归属感。

Surabhi Gupta
To start with, I would like to say that I might not be the best person to answer this, only because I am living in US currently.
But seeing this question, I couldn’t resist the urge to answer it.
I believe that answer to this question lies in our definition of ‘luxury’, on how we perceive it and on how important is luxury for us in comparison to the other factors.
For me, I find so many things more luxurious in India compared to US, and again that is my point of view, my definition of luxury.
For instance, when on vacations, I miss so many things from the Indian holidays which are missing in US.
We have to drag our luggage around when we arrive at the hotel. There is no luxury of being escorted to the hotel room. Yes of course, we are provided with the trolleys.
I miss the luxurious buffet breakfast which would kick us out of our beds on time. It had so many different options and is available in almost every good hotel in India these days. Recently on a vacation in US, we were excited to see breakfast being part of our hotel facilities and ended up having a slice of brown bread and a boiled egg from the limited breakfast menu. I mean who eats boiled eggs on a vacation ?
I miss the comfort of room service, of ordering food around the clock and satisfying your midnight hunger and it is completely missing here.
That is not all. You have to do each and every household task on your own.
While it is a good learning experience, it can become really tiring and frustrating at times. Everything ranging from washing utensils, laundry, cleaning dishes and the bathroom is on you. I don’t think it is a luxury.
Luxury was waking up to the sound of doorbell when maid would arrive in the morning. She would do the dishes, clean the house and even cook food. T
You have to plan medical appointments weeks in advance
In India, we get doctor’s appointment the very next day. It is simple, it is easy. Unlike US, where you can’t see a specialist until being prescribed by the physician. It can be really painful at times.
I can’t deny that US has its own set of luxuries and one of the most important ones is less traffic. Others are better technology, earning in dollars and many others. But again, I would prefer the luxuries which I listed above any day above these, and would love to return back to them very soon.

首先，我想说我可能不是回答这个问题的最佳人选，因为我目前住在美国。
但是看到这个问题，还是忍不住想要回答的冲动。
我相信这个问题的答案在于我们对“奢侈品”的定义、我们如何看待它以及与其他因素相比，奢侈品对我们有多重要。
对我来说，我发现印度有很多东西比美国更奢侈，这也是我的观点，我对奢侈的定义。
例如，在度假时，我想念印度假期中的许多东西，而这些东西在美国却没有。
到了酒店还得拖着行李到处走。被护送到酒店房间并不奢侈。是的，当然，我们提供手推车。
我想念豪华的自助早餐，它会让我们准时起床。它有很多不同的选择，现在几乎在印度的每家好酒店都有。最近在美国度假时，我们很高兴看到早餐成为我们酒店设施的一部分，最后从有限的早餐菜单中吃了一片黑面包和一个煮鸡蛋。我的意思是谁在假期吃煮鸡蛋？
我怀念客房服务、全天候点餐和满足半夜饥饿的舒适感，而这里完全没有。
这还不是全部。您必须自己完成每一项家务。
虽然这是一种很好的学习体验，但有时会变得非常累人和令人沮丧。从洗涤用具、洗衣、清洁盘子到浴室，什么都有。我不认为这是一种奢侈。
清晨女仆到达时，豪华酒店被门铃声吵醒。她会洗碗，打扫房间，甚至做饭。
在印度，我们第二天就可以预约医生。这很简单，很容易。不像美国，在医生开处方之前你不能看专科医生。有时真的很痛苦。
我不能否认，美国有自己的一套奢侈品，其中最重要的是更少的交通拥挤。还有就是更好的技术，以美元和其他赚钱的方式。但是，我还是更喜欢上面列出的奢侈品，而且我很乐意很快回到它们身边。
