Question
Can I bring anything for the hosts?
Answer
If you are able to, please pick up some liquor from the duty-free store upon landing in Bombay. Certain alcohol is hard to acquire in Bombay, so it would be tremendously helpful if you could bring 1-2 bottles (2 bottles per person is the maximum) of single malt or blended scotch, bourbon if available, and Johnny Walker Black or Double Black Label if you do not know what to choose. We will pay you back - thank you!
Question
