Southern Asia
From the Bustling Streets of India to the Towering Peaks of the Himalayas
India
Want to travel Asia authentically? More a world of its own than a country, India is what high definition cameras were made for. Grab a cup of chai by the roadside and watch the mingling of religions, customs, people, colors and cows as they parade by, oblivious to your presence. India is your brain on fire, yet as soon as you leave, you’ll itch to return, even if it’s just for the cellular service.
Although India travel is an attractive prospect, it might not be quite what you're expecting. Here's what you should be prepared for before you go.
Nepal
The Kingdom of Nepal can quickly overwhelm with its massive Himalayan Mountains, distinct culture and customs, and more gods than you could ever imagine. Whether you go to make the big climb up Everest or to immerse yourself in more gentle adventures, Nepal challenges as much as it delights.
