India, a place of beauty, devout religious practice, colour, spices, a rich history, and all the things you’ve seen in the films. That doesn’t even come close.

This place taught me more about myself than anywhere else I’ve been. It makes you eternally grateful for what you have at home and ashamed to know more of our colonial rule. This is a nation with a genuine pride in their country, as opposed to our parodied, media frenzied pride, surrounding football tournaments and royal occasions. A place that really does need to be experienced for itself, although without even a glimmer of getting anywhere close to understanding it.
