Assam
In six months of travel in India, I never met one person who visited it. When I was there (2.5 weeks) I saw two westerners. Anyone else care to share experiences? I had some of the most interesting travel experiences there, not just of India but of the Asia in total. Majuli Island was in particular a fascinating experience. I stayed with locals for a week, with accommodation and food. On departure I tried to pay them and they seemed quite offended I should have even thought of it. I just wish the permits for the other north-eastern states were not so hefty. That region is arguably one of India's least explored and most beautiful. Highly recommended if your seeking something a bit adventurous.
