Tipping in India

To tip or not to tip - that is the question.

UK transit and Schengen visas

We were chatting at a family get-together and this subject came up during our conversation ...

India (11-25 March 2015)

This was our fourth trip to India. India, again does not disappoint. Each trip offers something new, whether it is cultural, or a new eating experience. We flew Emirates. We went with Onestop Tours and package was R19 419 pp.

Vietnam (5-16 April 2014)

We did not expect Vietnam to be so beautiful. The natural scenery is a sight to behold.

Cambodia (1-5 April 2014)

We combined this Cambodian trip with Vietnam. We decided to go to Cambodia and Vietnam in April, the hottest time of year. We flew with Singapore Airlines. We went with Pentravel and our package per person for the combined trip was R29 999.

London (2-10 June 2013)

We decided to go to London on a whim, as there was a special birthday that needed celebrating. We prefer destinations with its own cultural feel, and London certainly surprised us.

India (January 2010, 2011, 2013)

With India, we were not sure what we were getting ourselves into, as we heard a lot of conflicting stories. But, we decided to visit anyway, to see for ourselves.

US (20 February-29 April 2012)

My trip to the US was more of a working holiday. I was chosen along with 15 other librarians from across South Africa to spend time in academic libraries. We were together for two weeks, and then we had to go our separate ways for the next two months. I had the most amazing time, and loved travelling alone.

Seychelles (16-23 January 2012)

Seychelles is a perfect tropical island holiday. And it is not only for romantics.

Far East (January 2006)

Places that we chose to visit in this part of the world were Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. We flew with Malaysia Airlines.

Mauritius (January 2005)

Mauritius is only a four hour flight from Johannesburg, and as soon as you arrive at the airport, you can already smell the ocean air. We flew with Air Mauritius.
