On the first day, he wanted to greet his Indian host. He tried to shake hands, but his host stopped him and did namaste (合十礼). Li Hua was confused and learned this greeting quickly. Then, he learned to eat curry (咖喱菜) with his palm (手掌). At first, it was difficult, but he enjoyed it soon.
During the programme, Li Hua learned many Indian customs, like how to bow to teachers and how to talk politely with elders. He also told his Indian friends about Chinese culture, such as the Spring Festival and kung fu.
