Can I tell you...about the people of Rajasthan. I know you have India coming out of your ears at this point but I warned you. This is my last blog entry about India...at least for this year. Be grateful that this is an edited version of my trip. Whenever and wherever I travel, what ultimately interests me are the people. Looking, observing, taking snapshots of them, and absorbing the details. I imagine what their lives are like, who they are, their hopes and dreams. I create these stories in my head. This is also why I like reading autobiographies. During my trip I bought "A Princess Remembers" written by the Maharani Devi Gayatri of Jaipur and I was completely absorbed in the details of her rich and colorful life. I highly recommend this book if you're headed to Jaipur. I took hundreds of photos but I chose my favorites. Here you can see the endless variety of dress, color, beauty and individuality of the people of Rajasthan. Enjoy!
