In October 2014, Tom and Yineka-mou (travelling as ‘Memsahib’ for the occasion) headed to Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. Eight posts, one camel, one Bhang Lassi shop, zero regrets. Read them in order for the full journey:

Time for Memsahib to Pack Her Sari
The spur-of-the-moment booking that started it all.

First Class to Delhi? Almost.
Dubai airport, Doha comparisons, and a very long flight to Delhi.

They Sikh Us Here, They Sikh Us There
Sailing through Delhi customs and straight into the organised chaos of India.

Well I’ll be Burka’d
A personal tour guide, Delhi’s sights, and cultural observations that only Tom could make.

Oh Goodness Gracious Me!
A quick update from a desert town between Jaisalmer and Jaipur that nobody’s heard of.

Red Dot Specials
Arriving in Udaipur after a 5-hour flight delay. Worth the wait.

Poppy Day in Rajasthan
Jodhpur, the Raas Hotel, and a Jain temple that moved Memsahib to prayer (and payment).

We Get the Hump in Jaisalmer
The Golden Fort, the Sweet Purple room, and a camel ride into the Thar Desert at sunset. The best of India.
