Colourful in its many religions. Colourful in its cuisine. Colourful
in its clothing and costumes and decorations. Colourful in its people and its
cultural and sporting views. Colourful in its chaos. If I had to choose one
word to describe my experience of India so far, “colourful” would be it.

There are no dull moments here. This is a place where
literally anything is possible. And it is memorable and frustrating, exciting
and exhausting all at the same time.

It is true what some travelers say about coming to India.
When you are here, you will love and hate it in equal measure. But when you
leave, you’ll remember your time here, in this country of contrasts, with great
fondness. As always, it’s the people you meet who make a journey worthwhile.
