Ask HN: Which are the countries where I can convert Bitcoin to local currency?

Why the question .... I am based out of India. Recently I have come across a potential client/employer who would only pay me in BTC. I called up Unocoin (India based) to find out how BTC gets converted to INR, and they said it takes 1-2 days (though I could not locate an individual who withdraws from BTC on a regular basis). It would be great to hear everyone's experiences on converting BTC to their local currency.
