A Little Bit of Tibet in India

This is a top pick! 14th Aug - It's a sign of how tired and jaded we are that we couldn't face the 10 hour bus journey from Shimla to Mcleod Ganj and so we decided to splash out and hire a car and driver. The journey was only about 300km but much of it is through the ...

There's a reason some people drop out of society
