I have always been an avid traveler. India has been on my bucket list for years now and an just so excited to see it. The culture is what really mashes me want to visit. Anytime I've ever visited another Country I've found myself immersed in the future if the natives. From the clothing, to did...

In the past, I have heard some very scary things about Sri Lanka. It has always fascinated me however. Something about the gritty nature of this place draws me to it. Although I am planning a trip to Delhi, I would like to see other places besides big cities and tourist sites. Would it be a good...

I agree with others on this thread that it's much safer to stay at a hotel. Whether in the States, China or India , you take a risk by using air bnb. You really don't know the people with whom you are staying with and surely don't know their intentions. I have heard horror stories from...

During my trip I plan on bringing my dog with me. I have a large Rottweiler and am wondering if people are friendly to dogs in Delhi?

This is a great question as I was just wondering the same of women. Personally, I think it is best to always travel with a buddy especially if it is for leisure. Too often people are kidnapped , robbed etc while on vacation simply because they are alone. I'd say, no matter where you go, India or...

As I plan my trip,I find myself wondering how the culture of India views women. I ask this because when I visit a country I try to be respectful of their customs within their culture. I have worked in Qatar and quickly figured out due to religion that women are to be covered. I received many...

Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmerman is a show I love to watch often. Recently an episode came on and their travel destination was India. If you know anything about the show, he basically eats foods that are considered bizarre to American standards. On this particular episode Andrew was walking...

I've been planning a trip to India since forever but am confused as to where I should go. I am African American so I am somewhat reluctant to book a flight somewhere I don't know anything about considering the backlash many of us get outside the US. My question is basically where can I find a...
