Be open about carrying any items that you consume lest it be taken as some sort of illegal drugs. Herbal teas are very common because many people like them and carry their own brands. I don't see any problem with you carrying them.

I do take a lot of photographs but lately I have started creating videos, on the spur of the moment. For example I made a video of pet dogs playing in a park the other day and uploaded it to YouTube. I like making short documentaries too but haven't done too many yet. .

I believe there is a good bird sanctuary new the capital city New Delhi. It is called Bharatpur and is full of migratory birds and is also worth a visit. You can hire a car for the trip and you can get back to the city on the same day.

No I haven't but I saw a video of it posted on Facebook the other day. It is very beautiful and to think that a sundial was built so many centuries ago is amazing. I will see whether I can go for a visit to the sundial when I am in India.

Sadly, I will not be going to Goa although I might visit a place that has many casinos. The place I am thinking of visiting is Nepal which has casinos; but of course, that is going to take place after my India trip.

I am traveling with a group of friends and we are looking forward to the visit. The more the merrier is the adage that we would like to go with, and we have traveled to many places together. Nothing beats having fun with friends.

I don't have babies with me but I'd hate to travel with diapers because of the sheer volume of space that they take up in the luggage. I think you can get diapers even in the remotest part of the planet, because babies are everywhere.

I noticed that all the big hotels in India have swimming pools. I am a good swimmer but I don't want to swim in pools that may not be clean. Are these pools cleaned well so that I don't fall sick after swimming?

I wear fresh clothes every day. I wonder whether there are laundries in hotels in India and are they reliable for handling expensive clothes. I don't want to give my clothes to a laundry only to get them back with tears and such.

I always carry my DSLR and all my lenses since it is difficult to get what you need. I am a professional photographer too and always carry my own kit. Renting stuff does not suit me as I spend weeks reading reviews of equipment that I would like to purchase.

I use a mosquito spray as it is convenient to carry and can be sprayed before sleeping. I got it cheap on eBay and bought two of them. I also have a mosquito cream that I use in case I run out of spray.

It is a good idea but I get better discounts at Walmart with good sale offers and price cuts on the older models. I don't think laptops are cheaper because all the international sites have prices that work out to be the same.

I don't like using bicycles in countries with a hot climate. It is an activity that involves a lot of exercise and before you know it you would be perspiring a lot. It is better to walk that to cycle as it would be quite relaxing as well.

I was planning to rent a self-drive can but now I have second thoughts. I guess a taxi driver who is familiar with the area is a better bet than a person who is not driving in India and does not know the place.

Carlsberg is my favorite and I do hope that it is available in India. I might not take to the taste of Indian beer and will try to carry a few cans of my own. In any case, I will be there for a few days only and even if I don't have any beer it doesn't matter.
