Dangerous territory.

First of all, you have to watch your toes. Bicycle rickshaws, auto rickshaws, motorcycles, cars, cabs, bikes, people, cows, dogs. Then, if it's not cow shit blocking your path, it's dog shit, if it's not dog shit, it's human shit. Maybe it's blood. It might be that a cow just relieved itself, or that you have to dodge some massive glob of phlegm from a vendor (aiming for the street of course), but there's also possibly a cripple, or a woman who puts a naked baby down in the street in front of you so you'll take notice. Banana peels, garbage of all sorts squashing below if you don't watch out.
