Best Exotic Tour
Is anyone keen to come with me on a most excellent adventure to explore colourful, historic Rajasthan for 3 weeks at the end of September this year?
Essentially this is a fundraiser for children I have "inherited" after their Mum died in an accident. She put this tour together for family and friends to show us what delighted her most about India, where she had made her home.
We'll retrace her route, staying in guesthouses with old-world charm, meeting people who were inspired by her work with the underpriviledged, purchase handcrafted treasures and colourful fabrics to bring home, and be wowed by the architecture and history of the old trade route.
With everything taken care of while travelling with her husband and myself in India, including all meals so we can take care of your tummy, you can relax and thoroughly enjoy the magic and mayhem that makes India so special.
Time slips away ~ time to schedule in an exotic adventure this year !

Poll: Do you want the water tower to stay?
Cambridge may not have to say goodbye to its historic water tower just yet as the council investigates a new, more affordable, way to preserve it.
However its final fate may rest on the outcome of a new detailed seismic assessment due to be completed by the end of the year.
Do you want the water tower to stay? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
