8 women descended on India for a total immersion into cultural overload. Over 16 days we honed our bargaining skills, learned about the intricate artistry of textile production and decoration, were treated to unparalleled hospitality and established new lifelong friendships from opposite sides of the globe.
Along the way we also learnt a little about India’s tumultuous past, it’s colourful characters and visited wonderful World Heritage locations.
It wasn’t all sightseeing and shopping although, what a treasure trove of collectibles this was:
Inspiration was everywhere, man made:
Incorporating old into new at Qutb Minar
and natural.
The Chambal River
Unimaginably decorative patterns and a rainbow of colours were everywhere.
We also experienced a bit of royal fun:
appreciated ancient techniques
and even learnt new skills from the masters themselves!
I wonder how many of us will incorporate that into our next endeavours?
