Happy Independence Day India!! In ode to the 65th anniversary of India's independence from British rule I thought I would share with you a few snaps from my travels around the country last year....Hope you enjoy!!

Jain Hindu Temple on a rooftop in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan

The Taj Hotel and Gateway of India in Mumbai

Street food stalls in Delhi

Palolem Beach in South Goa

Cows and other animals just chillaxing on the beach like ya do

I love this pic!! A rickshaw up on the cliff overlooking Varkala Beach, Kerela. (we could even see dolphins from the cliffs!)

The Golden Temple in Amritsar

Hope you like this photos! Have you been to any of these places or anywhere else in India? Got any funny stories??

    1. Same happened to me too! I was with two friends walking down a narrow gully in Varanasi and this stampede of about five cows came running outa nowhere! I scooted to the side but one trampled on my foot! So scary, for a split second I literally thought I was a goner!

    1. exactly!! I loved Varkala beach! It's one of my fondest memories, we made some really lovely friends in Varkala who we ended up meeting up with in Goa too. The beach is really nice and relaxing..not like crazy Baga beach. Very friendly atmosphere and the food in the restaurants above is very good quality. We hired some boogie boards too which was fun! I wish I was back there! lol
