We are so busy in our own world. Do you think Americans or any other countrymen are very knowledgeable about India or Indian leaders ? No. I am planning a solo trip to South-east asia and I am a woman (that too an Indian). :-) Lets see how it goes. Nice read ! I read this and I smiled. :-)

This is one of the starkling differences while traveling here, in the US, and back home in India. In the US, there are signs everywhere and keeping the traveller well informed at all stages. Besides, you have your GPS and navigation systems that can take you places without uttering a word to anyone. Quite different in India - where you need to ask 10 people for directions. One thing is for sure - people there are willing to assist you to the best of their ability. By the way, Bhuj is my native place. :) Nice post! Nice reading!

It forces you to reach a little bit outside of your comfort zone and build relationships with people you wouldn't necessarily talk to otherwise. I love this post...hopefully you'll get post again...
