We leave Jaisalmer in a beat-up 4×4 and head out to the Thar Desert. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the last few days, I\u2019d come to love the sandcastle streets of Jaisalmer, but you don\u2019t come to this part of India<\/a> to stay in the city. You come to discover the deserts, the curving sand dunes and the nomadic cultures who live near the border of Pakistan and call these dustbowl villages on the edges of India their home. We stop off in such a village, made up of a disorganised array of concrete houses, but splattered with the colourful dress of its inhabitants. My guide tells me to wait here until the camels arrive. It\u2019s India, so I expect it might take a while.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not long before a group of women, in vibrant saris and knotted hair take a liking to me – a solo blonde woman with a giant camera and an open curiosity. They ask me my name, and the classic questions of why I\u2019m not married, before one of the young children begins to paint henna patterns on my arm.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"India<\/a><\/p>\n

We share stories over chai, as is always done in India. The younger women relish in having their photo taken, and as I show them their snaps on the back screen of my camera, they burst into beautiful smiles. An hour passes and I almost forget I\u2019m waiting for a camel train to take me into the cascading dunes, as I wrap myself up in the warmth of these women – bright, vibrant, laughing Indian women.<\/span><\/p>\n

DISCOVER INDIA ON OUR 15-DAY CLASSIC RAJASTHAN TOUR\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>I\u2019d been travelling solo in India for a few weeks. I\u2019d arrived in Delhi as night fell and after a tuk-tuk ride through the city, arrived at a ramshackle train station and waited for the sun to rise over the tracks. I scoffed down my first cup of sweet chai and pulled apart round Medu Veda<\/em> bread, dipping each piece into a perfectly spiced daal, before hopping onto the 6:35am train to Jaipur. As we rolled out of Delhi and into the deserts of Rajasthan, I took a deep breath and settled into the fact that I was back in India. Back in the land of one thousand feelings and sensory pleasures, back in my favourite place in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"India<\/p>\n

Once again, I was ready to sink my feet into the depths of the country, once again I was preparing to photograph every corner of the colourful city streets, and to capture every face I could. And once again, I was solo.<\/span><\/p>\n

RELATED: WHAT TRAVELING THE WORLD SOLO HAS TAUGHT ME ABOUT LIFE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve travelled solo to many countries around the world, yet none have held quite the reaction that I get when I say I\u2019m going to India alone. It didn\u2019t seem to matter that I\u2019d done it before, or that most of the people that raise concern have never actually stepped foot into India themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve heard it all; \u2018India is a dangerous place\u2019, or \u2018It\u2019s no place for a woman alone\u2019. Most of these perceptions are based around the press following the highly publicised Delhi rape case. While this was a horrific event, it shouldn\u2019t shape perceptions of the whole country, a country of a billion people and many different cultures and religions.<\/span><\/p>\n

So what is it really like? The truth is that each person that travels to India – woman or man, solo or not – is going to have a completely different experience. India is a vast place, and experiences are going to be vast too. But I think every woman who has ever ventured into this country agrees that travelling in India as a solo woman is definitely challenging, but also endlessly rewarding. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You can\u2019t deny there is a significant gender gap in India. It\u2019s very unusual to see a woman travelling alone, and so it\u2019s often met with much curiosity, as well as the occasional slightly intrusive questions into my love life. Although times are changing, India is still very much a man\u2019s world, and for a woman travelling from a country where gender roles are much more equal and women have a lot of independence, this can be a bit of a shock. <\/span><\/p>\n

But India is not a scary place, I promise. It\u2019s colourful, full of intense spirituality, and some of the friendliest people on earth. You will be approached for photographs again and again, and walk down any street someone is bound to shout \u2018Namaste! Welcome to India\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"India<\/p>\n

As my trip continues, I watch camel trading in the deserts around Pushkar, before heading into the mountains where I see the start of the mighty Ganges river in a turquoise blue, tumbling from the Himalayas and into Rishikesh. I meet babas and watch pujas on the banks of the great holy river.<\/span><\/p>\n

I trek through ice up to over 4000m and watch one of the most spectacular sunrises I\u2019ve ever seen around the world. But finally, I get tired of the cold and fly down South to the warm beaches of Goa. I hire a motorbike for a few weeks and drive through palm-lined roads as mist rises over farm fields and a gentle ocean breeze caresses my ears.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Everywhere I go, I find ways to make myself feel comfortable. When I travel on trains, I make sure to choose the carriages which are full of families, women and children and always ensure that I don\u2019t arrive in a new place late at night. I stay in family-run guesthouses and eat at busy, bustling restaurants.<\/span><\/p>\n

I look to Indian women to make sure my dress sense is in line with the culture. In the North this means loose, long clothing and a scarf around my shoulders. While India can be a bit of a slap in the face at first – its busy, bustling and the culture can be intense – I settle into life as a traveller here, and slowly, I love it all. From the Himalayas, to the banks of Varanasi, to canoeing through Kerela\u2019s backwaters and visiting Tibetan refugee camps.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"India<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not that I don\u2019t come across hassle – it\u2019s an inevitable part of travelling in India, but I learn how to deal with it, and that is with an open mind and a smile. I find that India gives back to you what you give to it. If you approach the country with a closed mind, you are likely to have a negative experience. But if you approach the country with confidence and grace, then you will endlessly reap the rewards of this land. As the Indians say, \u2018Shanti Shanti\u2019 or relax and take it slow.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Back in the desert, we camel train into the dunes before sitting around a roaring fire to enjoy yet more chai and Rajasthani rhythms as the sky erupts into billions of stars. I show one of our guides my henna, and he points out a word written in Urdu which has been drawn around the Henna patterns by one of the women. \u2018Love\u2019 he translates, and for the next few weeks, I have this word engraved into my skin. Despite all the ups and downs of travelling in India as a solo woman, it\u2019s this one word which defines my visit, and the people of this land which really make it one of the most incredible places.<\/span><\/p>\n
