Whirl your mind, dazzle your eyes and fall in love with India's extremes.

"INDIA is a land of extremes. You can walk down a street and be in the middle of extreme poverty and the next minute you are walking past a Maharajah’s Palace or the Taj Mahal! The smells and the colors of India will attack all your senses and leave you breathless.

I decided to visit the province of Rajasthan and was amazed at the beauty, the poverty, the colors, the food!! I can’t say enough about it. Of course no visit to India is complete without seeing the Taj Mahal. No matter what you think or what you’ve heard about this place…until you have been there you can’t even imagine the beauty of it. Then there is Varanasi where the Holy Ganges river runs through it, an you see people bathing in the same water just a few km’s from the funeral pyre’s! I would recommend a trip to India for anyone who thinks life is boring!"
