Responsible trekking means carrying out trash - Many Himalayan areas are littered with waste. Pack out everything you bring in.
Avoid gem scams completely - Stories about buying gems cheap to resell at home are always scams. Never fall for this.
Credit cards aren't widely accepted outside cities - Many smaller restaurants, shops, and guesthouses only accept cash. Don't rely solely on cards.
Ask permission before photographing people - This is basic courtesy. Many will happily pose; some may request a small payment.
Auto-rickshaws must use meters in some cities - In Delhi, Mumbai, and others, drivers are legally required to use meters. Insist on it or walk away.
This is mainly an Indian/Pakistani phenomenon
Don't trust "friendly men" who speak good English in North India
Ship purchases home from post office - Indian postal service is reliable and very cheap for sending packages internationally.
Jain food is ultra-pure vegetarian - Excludes root vegetables, onions, and garlic. Some restaurants specialize in this cuisine.
Learn prices from locals before negotiating with rickshaw drivers
