Is 2023 your year to travel?

With the new year upon us, it is time to start dreaming of new adventures. Is India on your bucket list for 2023? Or are you interested in a completely different kind of holiday? India might be just what you are looking for.

On a personal note, I have just spent a wonderful month in India. There were many happy reunions after three years away from my Ekno Travels family. This is the longest I have been away from my second home in twenty years. It was a wonderful return, with many highlights, including a rooftop welcome lunch with the Ekno team, seeing Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo at her nunnery, a trip to the Palampur tea gardens and a final hurrah visit to Amritsar including dinner at the Golden Temple with the Ekno team and their families. I can’t wait to return, hopefully in 2024.

Check out our upcoming tours for 2023, and we hope to see you in India again soon, Sharon
