I have written three books on India - India: The Peacock's Call, India: The Tiger's Roar and India: The Elephant's Blessing which have all been published within the last six years. The Peacock's Call has just been republished with an additional Part II. My non commercial website promoting India is www.thepeacockscall.co.uk and my photo galleries on India, Scotland and South Africa are on [web link] India is the Land of my birth and I go back annually for a month to enjoy and experience this wonderful land with all her beauty and her challenges. Graham my husband and I travel independently and because I speak Hindi (from my childhood years) we are lucky enough to have some rather special experiences. I have tried to promote the whole of India but I was awed by Hampi in Karnataka and feel too few people know about it, and I love being in out of the way places in Rajasthan. My favourite Indian city is Delhi but followed by Hyderabad. I made a pilgrimage to The Ganga earlier this year and visited homes and places I had not seen for exactly 50 years! It was a happy fulfilling experience. I plan to return to India in January and think Indians need our support at a very challenging time. I am committed to try to help save the tiger which I consider the most magnificent of animals and I have been fortunate enough to see quite a few.
