When I got the idea for the spanishvibes website, I only ever wanted to write about spanish-speaking countries, as these are the ones I knew and the ones that attracted me.
I thought this is the direction that I would take this blog.
भारत गणराज्य– Republic of India
Not even in my most daring dream did I think that my next destion would then be in the completely opposite direction in South Asia, to the Earth’s seventh largest and the second most populous country in India.
Start chasing your dreams and they will come to you.
I got a huge opportunity that I am very grateful for and one that I gladly accepted. I will spend six weeks in India, trying to gather as much information as possible and pass it on. As I am leaving soon I already have my plane ticket, travel insurance and the visa application is in progress. I had no success in contacting the Indian Embassy for several weeks so a travel agency is helping with my visa application.
Vaccinations:
Vaccination are not required, but it is recommended.
The following diseases should be considered to be vaccinated against
-Typhoid Fever
-Hepatitis A
-Hepatitis B
-Partial meningitis
-Professional pandemic
-Cholera
-Tetanus
-Rabies
In any case, personal medical consultation is required where age, gender, physical condition, nature / purpose of travel, etc. in view of which vaccine is recommended. Several emergency centers can help but your local doctor can give you these vaccines. You have to be very careful to get them in time, as several days or weeks are needed in some cases for the development of immunity.
Curious waiting
Since I do not have any personal experience yet in this country, I have to rely, for now, on what I have seen in documentaries, movies and what I’ve heard from friends / friends. I know that the country is facing serious problems, the biggest challenges being overpopulation, poverty, illiteracy and malnutrition, yet India is a diverse, varied, vibrant and multi-cultured, I can not wait to get to know it more closely. The largest agglomerations in the country are Mumbai (Bombay), Delhi, Calcutta (Kolkata) and Chennai (Chennai / Madras), most of the news will be from Chennai.
I invite you to take this journey with me through my blog.
