This is my 60th year and there’s still so many places I want to go, and I want to meet everyone on the planet that I haven’t bumped into so far; probably not realistic, so I’m going to need to narrow that goal, but none the less, I intend to go to all the places I’ve longed to go. I’m not rich, so this is going to be a backpacking, budget, take a packed lunch sort of world tour. I'm starting with India. Fly into New Delhi, then the Golden Triangle. Shatabdi from New Delhi to Amritsar, from there its easy to go to Pathankot and then a bus to Dharamsala. The heading to McLeodganj, the upper part of Dharamsala, where the Dalai Lama lives. This is all very much in the planning stages and I would love to hear from anyone who has been to any of these places with advice, tips and encouragement. I'll be blogging on the way (www.shitim60.com) so any help or advice you give me before I leave I'll be thanking you on my way.

Hi shitim60.........me too in June. Your "bucket list" is identical to mine & I'm not rich either. I am really interested in your story & how/when you plan to do this? Where are you in the country & do you work. Look forward to chatting if you're willing.
