I will be going to India in March/April of this year, have doxycycline from my doctor back home. But am not sure I will need to take the medication as I will only be in Delhi, Agra, Varanasi, and Bodhgaya. Can anyone more knowledgeable on the current state of malaria in India give me some advice on the matter? Duration of stay: 2-6 weeks, depending on if I find a meditation school to get involved in.

Thanks in advance to anyone that gets back to me!

Hi there,

I have an opportunity to take a business trip to Bangalore India for 4-5 days in mid April and I am planning on bringing my husband and two boys - aged six and 12- with me from our home in Los Angeles.

We will likely fly out early on the 11th and arrive late night on the 12th. I will be quite busy with work from the 13th to 16th, however we are thinking of flying out late day on the 16th to Goa. We would like to spend four nights at a swanky beach side place (re: something EASY) and…

Strange request but we just got back from India and while in Mysore I read a column in I think the Hindustan Times where a very nice young man talked about adopting a street dog he called "Sniffy". It was an extremely sweet article and I wanted to share it. In any event I forgot to take the paper with me and can't find it on the internet. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. It may not have been the Hindustan Times but it was in a paper with an advice column on dealing with dogs…

I am looking at a short trip to India in October/ November. We only have 16 days which is sad but thats how it is.

Looking to travel mostly by train. I have just started looking at possible itineraries and we definitely want most of our time to be in Rajasthan.

Day 1 - Delhi (arrive 09:05)
Day 2 -Delhi
Day 3 -Delhi - Jaisalmer night train
Day 4 -Jaisalmer
Day 5 -Jaisalmer - Jodhpur taxi
Day 6…

Hi,
I'm flying to Delhi in March and will be catching a domestic flight to Dehradun. My international flight lands at 9am, will I have time to get to Terminal 1 for a departure of my domestic flight at 11:45am or will 2hrs 45mins not be long enough?

From whats I've read I can get the shuttle to Terminal 1, I assume it will take maybe 15 minutes max to travel the 8kms and it comes every 20 minutes... supposedly.

I just worry the baggage may be slow to come out or ill be waiting in lines for…
