This series follows a journey through India, travelling gradually across north and south as part of a small guided group.

Rather than trying to capture everything, these posts focus on moments noticed along the way — early mornings, long drives, crowded streets, quieter pauses, and the shifting impressions that come from moving through unfamiliar places day by day.

India is often described in extremes. This journey isn’t about chasing them. It’s about paying attention to what unfolds in between: how places feel rather than how they perform, and how perspective changes with time, heat, tiredness, and distance from home.

Some days will be full and absorbing, others slower and more reflective. Together, they form a record of travelling at a steady pace — noticing, adjusting, and learning as the journey progresses.

These posts are not intended as a guide, but as a personal account of being there — one day, one place, one moment at a time.
