I am hoping to fullfil a lifetime ambition and travel to India sometime next year. I live in the UK and as a Drugs Worker am not exactly rolling in money I have eanted to go since I was a child, can anyone recommened a really cheap way to do it? I know I can fly to Dheli or Bangalore for around £300 - I guess its just the accom and feeding myself I need to know about. All advice welcome! Tony...

I have just (last week) returned to Australia from an amazing, long awaited trip to India. I started off on a Gecko Tour as I was travelling on my own to get a feel for things. Then I travelled to Rishikesh for 2 weeks where I studied with Louise Ellis. I found that turning up to hotels and booking things over there was the cheapest. Where abouts in India do you plan on visiting? I am so excited for you! Sass

Check the rough guides etc. Eat simple vegetarian food, dhal etc - street food cooked on the spot is usually fine and practically free. Take very little with you - don't go lugging suitcases around. A few changes of clothes - travel essentials (strong combination padlock for hotel doors, malaria tablets if you're in the zone, sleeping bag, money belt, phone+charger). Have a mission or two but be aware that fixed plans are often toast. That is part of the magic.

I have a pretty weak tummy but was fine. I did take too much. You only need the bare essentials when it came to clothes... I didn't touch most of the stuff I took.
