The diary so far

Road Trip

Every trip we’ve written up, in the same easy format. Each one has its own colours. Pick a vibe to narrow it down.

Snow play near Atal Tunnel with the kids, slow days in Manali, and a rainy retreat in Tirthan Valley.

Ahmedabad to the hills by car: cedar walks in Mashobra, a streamside stop at Sadhupul, apple orchards and starry skies in Narkanda.

Two jyotirlingas, Ahilyabai’s ghats on the Narmada, Mandu’s ruined palaces and Indore’s legendary food streets.

Lochs, castles and the Isle of Skye by car, then the train down to London for Harry Potter and the sights.

Tea gardens and the toy train in Ooty, a tiger-reserve drive to Mysore Palace, then coffee country in Coorg.

Both islands by rental car, Christmas in Queenstown, Milford Sound and a slow finish in the Bay of Islands.
