India is a third world country that doesn't have near the resources that we do. In India women where there jewerly to signify how wealthy they are. Men will sit in a council house and smoke a hooka (which is a very large pipe)and sometimes not say a word for hours. Women must clean the council house. Another place where people go to visit or be entertained is a courtyard. People will perform tricks and showoff there. Many people in villages live in small huts,not much larger than the size of a small bedroom. They have one piece of furniture in there homes. That is a chair or two,and nobody is allowed to sit in those except high honored guests. Also a dentist and doctor come every 1-2 weeks.

A well known religous man by the name of Ghandi is a major factor in Indian life. He was a leader who could stop a war with words. He devoted his life to his religion. Ghandi was killed at a very old age. He will be remembered in not only Indian hearts but the hearts of all forever.

City life in India is also very interesting. Cows are sacred there and if they are in a city street cars will be forced to go around them with any twists and turns necessary. A vital form of transportation is the rickshaw. A rickshaw is a two wheeled cart powered by the legs of a human being. A grocery store for us is a bazaar for them. People in the city go shopping for almost anything you could possibly think of. People bargain at these shops for better deals. A better description of a bazaar is a huge outside market with shops only 11-12 feet wide.
