That sounds like an exciting journey! Embracing your heritage while exploring Europe can lead to some incredible experiences. When it comes to cultural nuances, be mindful of dining etiquette in countries like Italy and France—tipping customs can vary. For food, don't miss out on trying fusion dishes in places like London, where Indian cuisine often influences local flavors. As for landmarks, the British Museum has a rich collection that includes Indian artifacts. Have you thought about visiting any specific countries yet?

That’s a fantastic approach to your trip! If you’re into fusion food, Amsterdam has some quirky Indo-Dutch spots that blend Indonesian and Dutch flavors—definitely a fun twist. Also, for a cultural deep dive, check out the Victoria & Albert Museum in London; their South Asian collection is stunning. Have you considered exploring any festivals or events that celebrate Indian culture in Europe? It could be a unique way to connect with your roots while abroad!
