Capturing moments that will stay with us forever: Udaipur

August 17th 2015
Udaipur, its former nickname - the white city (although now more of a mix of yellow and blue homes), is only a couple hours away from Chittaugarh. A more laid back and maybe more touristy city than other places we've visited, but somehow still retaining its charm. Udaipur is probably one of the most beautiful places we've visited so far in India, with the huge lake Pichola complete with former pal ... read more

Hi we're Chris and P. We have quit our jobs and sold our house to follow our dream of travelling around the world for 12 months!!! Let’s jump back about 2 years - We're driving to P's friend’s house for an evening meal when she turns and says "I've been thinking..." And what a thought that was indeed. That thought turned into buying a dilapidated property and spending a total of 2 years 'doing it up' ourselves coupled with a new job and a wedding thrown into the mix for good measure.

Love this photo!
The women look so beautiful and colorful in their saris! So glad you got a good guide this time and bought great clothes without a hassle! But yikes, that 'fortune-teller' story was pretty scary. Ren's comment on the 'namaste hands' was brilliant. And I guess there were more tourists here because it was so gorgeous and had boat rides, a cable car and lots of rooftops. Lovely images!

We are in Cartagena, Colombia and we just love the colour here. Yes I agree, understandably sooner or later these picturesque places start attracting people. Apart from a little hassle (i.e. the gripping fortune teller) we still enjoyed the whole experience of being in Udaipur.
