He told me that it was quite a life changing experience, and I believe him. <br /><br />It's only a matter of having the guts to get away from what you know and leave your comfort behind.David G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16581915344908059499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861447409543225070.post-13622872674629212572010-02-10T11:11:20.491-06:002010-02-10T11:11:20.491-06:00Jimmy and Tommy, classic!

They were both incredibly gifted individuals to say the least, if only our nation had more men like them. If I had montpelier, I wouldn't leave too often either.<br /><br />I have a good friend who visits India every so often to partake in humanitarian work. He said it is unlike anything he has ever seen, everything from the culture to the architecture is so different he said it was like being on another planet at first. He enjoyed it very much, but after months of living there he said it made him very grateful for the things we have here at home. He definitely recommends a visit there though, just to experience that completely different facet of humanity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861447409543225070.post-42072494470607868202010-02-10T10:37:22.408-06:002010-02-10T10:37:22.408-06:00I did see LPC's posts on India and they only a...I did see LPC's posts on India and they only added to the fire.

My cousin went though - he went round the world one year - be prepared for the poverty. He found it too much to bear and cut his trip there short. Of course, there are many ways to travel. Books are a great place to start.<br /><br />Very best wishes, old chum,<br /><br />Rebecca<br />http://rebeccawoodhead.comRebecca Woodheadhttp://frombrain2bookshelf.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861447409543225070.post-50618836576972344162010-02-10T07:41:40.993-06:002010-02-10T07:41:40.993-06:00I used to have a serious case of wanderlust!

I don't think I've had the thing on this year, we've been so busy with new books! Wish I'd known about the V&A exhibit; Bill would have loved it. He has a thing about the Maharjahs as well. We've only been to Goa once; I suspect another trip to Jaipur or suchlike is in the cards.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239488936038510294noreply@blogger.com
