Travelling to India, Sri Lanka and Ireland

Over the winter of 2012/13, I will be going to India and South Asia for the sixth time. My trip will criss-cross the subcontinent and include almost a month in Sri Lanka — and of course I will be blogging and posting updates to Twitter and Facebook along the way. In India it is very wise to go with the flow, so I will no doubt have unscheduled travel adventures, and discover stories of events, people and places I never dreamed of. But in the meantime, The South India & Sri Lanka Highlights Tour takes you on a timeless discovery and exploration of the Golden Period of Dravidian architecture.

Time is running out for this magnificent animal and for many other species — not to mention the few forests and wild, natural places left in India. But I developed a keen interest in the fate of the tiger, India’s iconic animal symbol, and wrote about my visit in Looking for India’s tigers in Ranthambhore.
