From Adele: India, it is often said, is a continent and not a country. It is one of the world’s greatest civilisations, its social structure as it exists today, can be traced back thousands of years and empires of great size and complexity existed here before anything comparable in Europe. You can never fully KNOW India, that is its beauty. In that unfathomable mystery lies the attraction, the lure. India is vast and in many places crowded, its luxurious and squalid. The plains are as flat and featureless as the himalayas are high and spectacular, the food can be terrible and magnificent. There is nowhere else on earth with the variety of India, this place gets into your blood.
EnduroIndia has taken us on a roller coaster of emotion through some of the most staggering scenery on earth, the poverty at times got us down but we were always uplifted by the warmth, happiness and generosity of the people. How can people with so little seem to have so much? Basically India is what you make of it. Immerse yourself in the wonder of the place, surrender to its magic and madness and you will come out a different person than you went in. India is an assault on every single sense you have got, you can go from feeling physically assaulted by the hustle and bustle of the city street to experiencing a sense of inner peace never encountered on a deserted mountain, tiger reserve or beach. I have done my best to describe this place but it’s beyond words…
