Opis

When Tony and Ludmilla set off on their unforgettable journey, India was a very different place ... In the unyielding capital they try to get to grips with the country before it gets a grip on them. Escaping Delhi, they (almost) visit the Taj Mahal in Agra - where the locals walk the town with streetlamps on their heads. After a close call with a sword-wielding madman, they head off into the Rajasthan 'desert' on arguably the grumpiest camels in India. Exploring Goa they unearth the Yellow Tribe of Arambol and discover some very strange goings-on over at 'Slow Beach'. A humbling visit to a school for under-privileged children in Tamil Nadu leads them to India's southernmost tip, where the rigours of travel take their toll and the world turns black. Travelling in this land of contrast and contradiction is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, full of memories as colourful as the country itself. This is India - where possibly the biggest culture shock is arriving home again. "Not a guidebook or history book laden with facts and figures that pass through faster than a fiery vindaloo - 'Masala Memories' is a true-to-life, chuckle-out-loud journey that any armchair traveller can take inspiration from."
