If you’re looking for India travel blogs, inspiration, and informational guides, you’re in the right place. We’re Indians who have lived in India for 28 years and travelled around the country extensively for at least five years.
And we can tell you with certainty, that India is NOT just the Golden Triangle or the Himalayas. In fact, we’ll go out on a limb and say that Maharashtra (which doesn’t feature at the top of most India bucket lists) offers the highest diversity of attractions. And our personal favourite is Madhya Pradesh.
India has long been equated with tigers and elephants, but it is so much more than that. It is a land of stunning diversity, chaos, colours and spirituality.
Living in India can be difficult, because the country is still straddling that difficult ground between old and new. But when it comes to travel, we can safely say that India is pure magic.
Quick facts:
Yes, that’s a lot of area to cover! But obviously, you won’t be covering all of it. Given the vastness of India, it doesn’t make sense to try and see the entire country at once. Focus your travels on one of these parts of India: north, south, east, west, central, north-east or the islands.

Lately, I’ve been hankering for a road trip. Not a cloistered train ride or a blink-and-miss flight or even a rickety semi-recliner bus. I want the comfort of sailing along a road on smooth tyres with the window turned down, the music blasting and the wind turning my hair into a bird’s nest. The last …

Come here, and you will be introduced to clusters of Eucalyptus fossils, arranged in familiar shapes like hearts and circles. We even saw the fossil of a dinosaur egg, reminding me of Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park series. A rusty gate creaked open when the friendly old caretaker opened it for us. He turned out to be a treasure trove of information on the plants that he tended to so lovingly. He told us that the fossilised plants in the quiet park were 65 million years old! What was the world like that many eons ago?

As a business journalist, I’ve attended a lot of corporate conferences. Some are insipid, others entertaining and a rare few are both educative and inspiring. Then again, it isn’t fair to generalise when some speakers are simply better with their words than the others. Today, I had the privilege of attending SATTE Mumbai West under …
