Aum Ganeshaya Namah ("In what we are about to do, let wisdom be our guide.")And so it begins. I am going to Incredible India!! I am preparing for my first trip to the mysterious subcontinent in honor of a friend's wedding. The preparations are intense and unlike anything I have done for past travels. India is infinite in its possibilities for sightseeing and adventure but also requires a huge dose of reality.
My list so far:
-100s of Hours of Internet Research
-6 Vaccines (Hep A/Hep B/DPT/Polio/Typhoid + Malaria Pills)
-5 Movies (Best Exotic Marigold Hotel/Salaam Bombay/Darjeeling Limited/The Fall/Passage to India)
-4 Lines to wait in for your visa
-3 Books (Holy Cow/Culture Shock! India/Wanderlust Guide For Women Traveling to India)
-2 (one-way) tickets going in (South India) and coming out (North India)
-1 Binder with all my information
-And a peacock in a pear tree!
August 6th is the D-Day!
Namaste!
