About a million years ago, when I left the East Coast to go to graduate school in California, my mother sent me a "Care Package" that included, among other things, several rolls of toilet paper. Where did she think I had moved to - India or something!

Delhi, Agra Jaipr get scold in winters. So you may need somethign more warm than t-shirts. Ditch the toilet paper. Nothing amuses an Indian more than a tourist who has brought paper to wipe his a$$.

Thumbs up Yeys, better safe than sorry

Namaste,
NOW,or when you go to INDIA?

Yes alway better to be know be safe than really sorry. I Always travel with a small packet of baby wipes.

You never know what yout tummy will decide to do, better safe than sh#$^(you know what I mean or can imagine the consequenses, unless you are wearing various brown clothing. I always carry a couple of rolls of regular soft paper also.

Thanks for asking, it is an important question. if you are a woman be sure to wear a long skirt if travelling by bus, for those unscheduled side of the road stops. Guys ond one side womwn on the other.

have a stress free day, gregor
