I spent 5 weeks in India during winter '99... it was to be a wonderful trip. First, I journeyed to the incredibly colourful and hospitable desert state of Rajasthan, where a major portion of my trip was spent. I then travelled south,  to the palm fringed beaches of warm and languid Goa. I finally set base on home turf - in Bombay.

When one has had such a super time, it's impossible not to want to share it with others! This is not a travel guide, but some personal impressions & photographs of Rajasthan mainly, with Goa and Bombay thrown in for good measure. Rajasthan was camera friendly even to an amateur photographer like me, and I wish I had taken more photographs for my personal album while I was there.

Thanks for taking the time to visit this site, and hope you enjoy browsing through glimpses of my inspiring, enjoyable, and regretfully short stay in India.
