If you stay in an Indian home,bring something from your home country as a gift.Although it is not expected,it would be much pleasant.But find out the social position and religion(宗教)of your hosts before you choose the gift.A bottle of foreign whisky would be the perfect gift for some,but not at all suitable for others.If you know the people you are going to stay with,it is a good idea to ask them what they would like.Some things are just not available(可获得的,可购到)in India.
