For many years, the Indian Tourist Board in the UK ran an advertising campaign under the strap-line 'Incredible India'.
After spending the last 2 months here, only scratching the surface of this sprawling, diverse country, 'incredible' seems the perfect description of everything good and bad about this place.
When we first arrived, we weren't sure if we would last 2 months but as the days and weeks passed, we slipped deeper into 'Indian Mode' and now we just don't want to leave. India is definitely an acquired taste and we are hungry for more.
It's dirty, noisy, smelly, sweaty and I can't pretend to enjoy all of those added 'benefits' but the whole experience is definitely one that we have enjoyed.
There is so much more to experience here, so much more to explore, so much more to see, touch and smell, so much more to eat.
India, we'll be back...
Incredible, Unique Culture
Incredible Scenery
Incredible Number of Cows
Incredible, truly incredible, Food
Incredible Poverty and Dirt
(but much less than we anticipated, Shoshi has been amazed by the transformation over the last 20 years)
Incredible Number of Israelis
Incredible Roads
Incredible Weather
Incredible People
Incredible Architecture
