Just be glad you're only visiting and haven't decided to relocate lol.

I am travelling to India more often now in the last two years because of work. Been here with with my lovely wife and daughter and I am soooo freakin glad they are here with me. My God they are so so in the dim dark ages of social inequality and taboo its not funny. I miss Australia and am happy that I have just a couple of weeks before I get back! I do love India but the social bit just pisses me off... omg… its 7 AM and I am in India with family (Mum’s and Dad’s side of the family) who I have realised are VERY different from me (I have become more Aussie in the last 20 years living there).

Not enough to justify freight to Taiwan. Taiwan beer isn’t that bad.

Well either that or it’s been that long since I had any local Australian beer.

…don’t get me started on the American crap beer they have here either.

This might be due the fact that Asians have a relatively high rate of lactose intolerance.
