Great photos! The two beach picture really made me smile.. & long for a nice vacay, haha.

I was never much of a beach person before this, but when they're really empty It can be so nice!

Wow!
This was completely random to me, yet absolutely amazing.
I think that I'd be too afraid to visit India, unless it were on some sort of business trip or something. I went to Korea a few years ago, and realized how spoiled I am. Blah blah blah~I'm glad that you had a great time :D

[kateywilkinson]

Omg, I realised I was totally spoilt D: especially when it comes to bathrooms, and I was in a house with up to 14 other volunteers and I never before realised how much I value my alone time! I had to go in the toilet to cry once because it got a bit overwhelming for me!!

I was so scared at first- I managed to avoid going in the Indian style toilets almost completely.

Lmao, they have the ones where it's just a hole in the ground, right?
My thigh muscles have never been stronger than that year XD So much squatting XD

Ugh, yes!
Alone time is grand XD

[kateywilkinson]

Haha, yeah, where I was staying had a western toilet so it was fine at first- it was just out and about in the town, and we had to carry toilet paper with us all the time!

wow, india looks amazing. & i had henna done in kuwait last year & it only lasted a week too! :( maybe they just don't wash that hand hence it lasts so long? totally jealous of you, i want to hang out with elephants!!

[kateywilkinson]

I was really worried about the etiquette with hands- I think its in India too that they eat with only one of their hands because the other is used for washing. I was scared I might offend someone :O

It was so cool- I wish I'd seen the North too. Aw, they were so sweet and the ride is actually pretty comfy :D

[blme]

This sounds fantastic - I have to say that you really sold it, and if I ever get the chance, I'm definately going to India!

[kateywilkinson]

Oh, you should- it's just refreshing to go and see a different culture I think :D

thanks for the add =],
wow those pics are beautiful! lol those toilets remind me of the toilets i read about in japan. and it must be a great
experience in those hospitals.

[kateywilkinson]

Yeah, I think the toilets are like that all across Asia, but I guess you'd get used to them after a while. It was- so different to hospitals in England and obviously they have a different set of common health problems due to differences in diet etc...
