Being a vegetarian or a vegan in India

Whether you are a vegetarian or a vegan and you are planning on travelling to India, let me tell you that you will have absolutely no problem at all. 

As vegetarians/vegans, one of the things that we worry about before visiting a foreign country is its cuisine and whether there will be many options for us or not. Sadly, in many European countries, their main dishes all have either fish or meat (or both) and we cannot eat many things in regular restaurants without reducing our diet to a basic salad made with lettuce and tomato - sometimes without even a single drop of oil. I have personally faced this problem many times in Spain... going to a mainstream restaurant and finding out that you either eat some undressed lettuce or you go back home with your stomach empty. 

Treating oneself with... Indian ghee sweets!

This post is dedicated to people like me, people who enjoy eating and trying new dishes, sweets and desserts every time they visit a new country; people who consider a country's cuisine as part of their identity and culture; people who, basically, like treating themselves and are willing to try the huge variety of sweets displayed in Indian bakeries. 

The cheap luxury of... Indian perfumes!

If you want me to be totally honest, I believe that this kind of perfumes can be bought in many other places in the world and not only in India. However, the ones that you can see in the pictures below are produced in Mysore (India) and sold here, too. I specifically bought these six bottles while I was in Kochi (Kerala) and I am really happy with my purchase!
