Twenty two days to go...

Although the focus of our journey is our spiritual pilgrimage, the start of our adventure will be a culinary pilgrimage of sorts - especially for me (Andrew) being a vegetarian and a lover of Indian food. On the other hand, Lorraine and our two fellow adventurers, Astrid and Christian, are all rather fond of Indian sweets!

I will miss cooking every night, even with the prospect of such amazing food all around me, but hopefully I will return with a few tips and recipes to try out at home (Lorraine is hoping that I return with lots of tips and recipes!).

If I could only visit one place in a town or city, it would be a fruit and vegetable market. It's such a thrill for me to see something that I haven't seen before. (I don't know if my three travelling companions will share quite such a passion for weird fruits and vegetables!).
