These are far too generic. The variance from state to state, or even parts of the same US state is humongous. Same for different European countries. Traveling in Europe for a South Asian also isn't necessarily easy either. The wait times for getting a Schengen visa are pretty ridiculous right now. They are also much stricter about granting the visas these days than they used to (source: colleagues who've had months-long waiting times for visa appointments, and getting denied multiple times).
