Of course you've felt the way other people, other races, other cultures smell different than your own. You seldom say it because it can be perceived as a racist comment. Some people try to justify it by saying that it's food that makes them smell different. Them is in italics of course because I'm sure they (whoever they are) think that we (whoever we are) smell funny.
Anyway, guess what? It's true! I've just spent 3 days in paradise-like Mauritius Island and I smell like an Indian. Every trip is to be enjoyed with all the senses and so, every trip is also a gastronomic experience.
During these 3 days and despite the many and harsh complaints from my agonizing liver, I have tried the most local dishes I could. It was not easy because I spent most of my time in Sofitel and their cuisine is very international but I sort of managed. And when I say I sort of managed I mean that I smell like an Indian... Or at least my sweat does ;)
Eew, why do you have to write about sweat smell???? - you may be saying.
Well, didn't I say every trip is to be enjoyed with all the senses?
