Synopsis
Telling it like it is, 'A girls' guide to India - a survivor's handbook' reveals to women backpackers everywhere what they really need to know.
While lads can hoist on a rucksack containing a spare pair of pants and some ageing flip-flops without worrying about personal safety, hygiene or unwanted offers of 'jiggy jiggy', a girl about to explore the sub continent will have a long list of questions that men rarely need to ask.
In an A-Z of essential topics find out what to put in your backpack, the intricacies of train travel, the second use of a mosquito net, and how to navigate the Indian toilet system without public humiliation.
An amusing but useful set of tips for that upcoming trip or gap year, and a ride down memory lane for seasoned travellers who are longing to return.

July 03, 2009: This book was a humorous look at things to think about when traveling in a less highly developed area of countries around the world. While this focused on India, many of the same concepts apply to travel in less developed areas in general. I really enjoyed reading and picked up some great ideas!
