    What Is The First Thing That Comes To Mind When You Hear India?

    I think more of temples, culture, and religion. I also think about the snakes and the snake trainers. But this isn't really the first thing that comes to mind. I picture the bright lights, people, and festivals. The culture and of course the tigers and wild life.

    Curry

    I know a lot of people who don't like curry. Maybe it's the way the food is prepared. I had a few curry dishes that I didn't much like either. But for the most part I love curry and especially curry dishes with coconut milk.

    Bhangarh Fort - The most haunted place in India

    Beautiful pictures. I'm wondering what the talk is all about. I have visited a few sites around the world they claimed were haunted. I didn't find anything unusual about them. I think a lot of people use this to attract tourists. Not sure if this is the case here or not.

    Ladakh Travel Guide

    I'm curious what has attracted you to Ladakh. Is it something you saw on TV, read, or heard about? Normally if a person has such a strong desire to visit a place there is a reason behind this. Now you have me curious about Ladakh and I need to go and look it up.

    Are Hostels Common In Smaller Indian Cities?

    I personally love the small hostels. The families that run these places are superb. I feel that staying in a hostel you'll have a much better feel of the country and the people who live there. I am not much on hotels or motels when I travel. I even love to find camping facilities to stay at.

    Mirik Town

    I was looking through some of your images on the site. One caught my eye. It is a beautiful image of Mirik Town. The town looks rather small. Is there anything around this area to see and do? What can you visit or see in Mirik Town?

    Unmarried Couples

    I know many couples who aren't married and travel together. I don't think the hotels in India will object to the couple staying together. I think this is more for the people of the country. I think they might object if an Indian couple came to the hotel and they weren't married. Some countries...

    Best Non-alcoholic Beverage?

    I'm sure there is a lot of different fruit drinks to try in India. I think you'll also have plenty of different kinds of teas to taste. I'm not so sure about coffee and how many varieties of coffee there is in India. However, I'm sure you'll find plenty of wonderful tasting drinks in India.

    Banana Chips

    Banana chips are delicious. I have never tried them seasoned before. This does sound delicious and could prove very interesting. I wouldn't mind trying some seasoned banana chips.

    What Is The First Thing That Comes To Mind When You Hear India?

    There is so much to see and do in India. But what comes to mind when you're planning your vacation. For me it is seeing the snake tamers, looking at scorpions on a stick, or seeing some other insect on a stick. I also think of Buddhism and seeing the temples. Every film you see on TV or in the...

    Whole World's Going Crazy...

    Today it seems that people just want to fight or have a war with boarding countries. I still don't understand why they would want to attack the air base. I have a few friends from Pakistan and they seem so friendly. I have been invited to a few wedding in Pakistan, but it was impossible to get...

    Night Life In Bangalore

    This would be fun. I hope somebody can help out. I would like to go out at night, listen to music, watch a local dance show, or just see some street entertainment. I wonder what is available?

    Day Safari

    I'm wondering if it would be worth the time and money to book a day safari. I would love to go in search of tigers, see the wildlife and explore the wilderness. Has anyone ever just booked a day safari in India? How was it and did you enjoy it?

    Camel Safari -- Bikaner

    I have always dreamed of riding a camel. I think this would be a lot of fun. I was thinking of finding a place when I am there that did a day adventure on camel. I think this would be the highlight of my trip and something that I would or could talk about forever.
