First time caller, long time listener

RichB · Mar 8th, 2007, 19:32

Hello everyone,
I'm going to the blessed India for the first time in April thru May. Just wondered what my essentials should be; clothing, mosquito net, medicenes, anything you can think that will be helpful. I've had my jabs and am getting the visa tomorrow.
We are arriving in Delhi, then to agra, varanassi, kolkata down to Chennai, Pondicherry, then across to Goa, Mumbai, johdpur, jaipur, then back to Delhi.

I await anything and everything I need to learn!
Thanks so much,

Rich

hi rich, and welcome to indiamike!

i've moved your post to the packing forum, where it'll likely get more responsive traffic. probably the best place to start is by perusing this forum - there's a wealth of information on packing for different destinations and seasons. if you use the google search function (better than the site's own search engine), you can generate even more specifics.

good luck with that packing list!

You'll be in time for the real heat in Chennai!

bring very light clothing and plenty of sunblock!

And have a wonderful trip
