Going Traveling?

When you are travelling, getting the perfect travel diary for you can be hard to find and sometimes I think its best to just have a normal note pad and jot everything down in there when you have enough time to write in it.  Because lets face it you go to these places to see the world and if you have enough time to document those memories then all well and good.

My first travel diary (and actually only travel diary) was just a note pad that I date each time I write in it, and I love it.

This time around as I am going to India, I wanted something a little more exotic or just a bit more exciting to look at while I was away to inspire me to write down everything that I saw at the end of each day, because now with hind sight I love reading back through my diary.  The pages are now well thumbed.

Recently Joules a lovely English Heritage type brand offered me this journal to give away to you, my lovely readers, as a travel diary.

The bug has struck again

Ok so I say again, its never gone anywhere its one of those things that once you have caught it, you have it for life.  There are just days where the pain (yes I know that sounds extreme but its true) is less bearable than on others and then there are the days when I just chose to torture myself too by watching Bondi Rescue on repeat.

Enough of that anyway.  I'm not getting back to Australia any time soon, so to face that fact and to try and see a little bit more of the world anyway - I am taking a trip of a lifetime to go see India.

Now I have already written about all the superficial things on my other blog, fashion wise, that I am excited about doing when I get there and where I am going to buy my first sari, but here is where I am going to write all the nitty gritty, if I Can get anywhere near a computer while I am there, if I cant I will write it all in my diary and tell you all about it when I get back.

I have already purchased my Lonely planet guide to India and my visa is already sorted.  Now I just need to compile a list of all the places that I want to see and when I am going to find the time to squeeze them all in.

I am going out there to meet my friend Siobhan, who will have been working there for a month as a journalist in Bangalore.  She is going to fly to Deli, where we will meet and go explore some of the wonders of the world, like the Taj Mahal.

I will keep you up to date, with all the things that I am planning, but if you have any other suggestions too of places that I should visit in Delhi, Agra or Jaipur then let me know and I can add it to my list.  Its rather long already....
