During our trip to India during the Summer of 2019, we saw a bunch of familiar American fast food restaurants. We dined at McDonald’s a handful of times and KFC once (it was extremely spicy).
When purchasing drinks and snacks, we did so from shops which weren’t exactly what I’d consider to be stores.
Kim and I did read about a convenience store which sounded a lot like 7-Eleven. The store has the very creative name, 24Seven! Continue reading Review: Forget 7-Eleven, We Visited 24Seven in India!

Over Winter Break 2019, the Michael W Travels family went on a Deep South Road Trip.
During the trip we visited five states, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama and North Carolina.
