A morning walk in a Delhi park turned memorable for a foreign traveller when a group of strangers warmly greeted him and invited him to share their breakfast. Austin, a travel vlogger, later shared this
heartwarming experience on Instagram.
The moment has since gone viral online, with many viewers praising it as a beautiful example of the everyday kindness often found in India.
Indians Offer Tea To Foreigner At Delhi Park
The video shows Austin walking in a park in Delhi, where a group of middle-aged men are seen enjoying their morning tea along with bread and cheese. One of the men calls him over and offers him a cup of tea, which he accepts. Soon after, the men also hand him bread to eat along with the tea.
Sharing the moment on camera, Austin says, “These Indians just called me over. They gave me some bread and cheese. They also gave me fresh coffee or chai. Indian hospitality is real. First morning in India, I already got a free meal and free drink. I’ve never been in a country like that where people would call me and give me free food. That’s never happened. Shoutout to India.”
In the caption of the video, he adds, “I was walking alone when these strangers called me over for chai. They didn’t want anything — just to share a moment. This never happened to me in any other country.”

Viewers Call It A Glimpse Of Everyday Indian Culture
Since being shared on Instagram, the video has crossed over one lakh views and sparked a wave of reactions in the comment section.
One user commented, “The Western mind could never comprehend this!”
Another wrote, “Feeding is part of our culture. No one has to stay hungry around us.”
“Amazing hospitality! We need more of this in our world. More love, patience, empathy and kindness for each other,” someone else remarked.
“Indian hospitality is next level,” a person added.
A viewer explained the gesture by saying, “Bro we don’t like to eat alone, that’s disrespectful for us. So, when anyone comes to us while we’re eating, we offer them to eat with us.”
An individual joked, “Americans would have called NYPD or FBI for intruding privacy.”
“Eating and feeding is our love language” and “The world practices materialism, but the Indian subcontinent practices hospitality” were some other reactions.

A month ago, US travel vlogger Nick McCutcheon recently shared a moment from his visit to DJ Halli in Bengaluru that left a lasting impression on him. While walking around the neighbourhood, he stopped at a small tea stall and asked for a cup of chai.
The stall owner served him right away and politely refused to take any money. The small act of kindness deeply touched McCutcheon, who later spoke about it while praising the warmth and hospitality he experienced in India.
