I am not a big fan of overnight trips because I never seem to be able to sleep in a sitting position; even on a reclining seat. I always need to be really comfortable in order to be able to fall asleep. However, these Volvo buses look pretty good actually. Are they very expensive?

Scorpions? Wow! I have heard all sorts of weird things being eaten, but I have never heard of people eating scorpions. Aren't they full of poison? How can they be eaten?

I have done a few yoga classes in the past, but it has been a really long time ago. However, I have never done it at the beach. That should be a completely different experience.

Peacocks are such beautiful and colorful birds. Are you allowed to interact with them or touch them if you visit one of the wildlife sanctuaries?

I have never heard of samosas. What do they look like? Do they stuff them with seafood like the Chinese version or wontons? Those are my favorites :)

I have a friend who has been in a similar situation; however, she was smart enough to detect that it was a scam and did not buy any gems. So many people are a victim of this every day though, and not many people are aware that it is a scam unfortunately.

How hard is it to travel with your pet to India? Are there hotels or guest houses that are pet friendly? Did you have any experience with this?

How do you deal with beggars in the streets in India? Do you think it is a good idea to give them some money? What do you think?

Do you think I should get some vaccines before traveling to India? If so, what are the most needed ones in order to prevent major infections or illness?

There are countries that allow you to bring your prescription drugs with you, while others are very strict about them. For example, in the UAE, you are not allowed to bring any depression related drugs, even if you have a copy of your doctor's prescription. It's strange, I know, but that's the...

In my case, as I love reading, I carried so many books with me when I went to Indonesia, and I ended up not having enough time to read. So they were too heavy.

I think I would not mind finding someone to travel with online. It could be fun and adventurous, but I agree that you should get to know the person a bit better before deciding to travel together.

I tried camel milk once when I went on vacation to Dubai. It is not so different from cow milk in my opinion. However, I don't remember what different health benefits it has.

I have never heard of Pakodas before, so I did a search on Google and they sound yummy. If they are similar to onion rings, I guess they will be easy to make too, right? I will probably look for a recipe online and hopefully will be able to find all the ingredients to try it.
