Update, December 2009

Jakob and Rie have returned from their trip to the remote Lakshadweep Islands (the Laccadives) in the Indian Ocean, north of the well-known Maldivian Islands.

The island group, consisting of deserted atolls, empty beaches, and small Muslim fishing villages, is one of the least visited areas in Southern India – and has to be one of the best kept travel secrets in this area of the world.

More pictures and a separate page with travel information will be uploaded during Christmas ´09 – so far, enjoy a few pictures from the Lakshadweep:

The India site is going to be uploaded soon

India is one of Jakob and Anders’ favorite destinations. We have travelled throughout India in 2007, 2008 and 2009, and in the beginning of 2010 we will upload our India site with pictures from North India (Himachal Pradesh Himalaya, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, New Delhi, Uttar Pradesh), East India (Sikkim, East Himalaya), West India (Mumbai, Goa), South India (Kerala, Tamil Nadu), and the Indian Ocean Union territories of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, as well as the Lakshadweep Islands.

For now, face the diversity of magnificent India:
