As a person from India I feel literally nothing. Yeah this lady is over-exoticising India but that's between her and her eventual disappointment. But she's not wrong that India is VERY different and it's not wrong to compare it to going to another planet. Exaggeration is at the heart of excited metaphors. Fuck these people getting offended on my behalf.
