Hi Doreen.
Read your article with great interest as we to discovered india in our prime and pleased to say we had a great experience dispite all the misgivings of others who went before us.
I help run the Chester club and on 17th July we are priveledge to hear about the travels of another couple who did very much the same as we did. Found a taxi driver we felt we could trust and paid him by the day to show us his home land. We got far more than we bargained for as he had a relative in almost every place we visited including one who owned one of the many reed boats in Kerala so yes we spent a night on one. What it cost us to hire him we certainly got back in cheap deals and wonderful experiences including meeting his family and being treated to a welcome and a banquit fit for a visiting king.
Perhaps we saw India as everyone should see it through the eyes of someone who is passionate about his homeland and not through a package deal which protects you so say from harm and influence..
Happy travels keep on trekking. Regards Angela Blundell. Chester Travel club.

After listening to Radio 4 this morning I checked out Globetrotter’s web site. Doreen Tayler’s story is really great. I can totally sympathise as I travelled on my own in India and her article brought back many memories. Well done, Doreen and many more happy travels. Barbara
