Government Buses in India

By wanderinggurl on Apr 21, 2010
The government buses in India are pretty good. They're often a little cheaper (but not dramatically so) than the private buses, and they're more frequent. If the private bus schedule is inconvenient or infrequent, head to the government bus station and you'll likely be able to hop on a bus within an hour or so (depending on your destination).

Food Isn't As Spicy as You Might Think

By backpackguru (Our Global Journey) on Nov 28, 2011 in Food
When you're traveling in touristy areas that are used to catering to restaurant tastes, you'll find that most of the food isn't as spicy as you might think. It may even be milder than the Indian food you eat at home. The restaurants are accustomed to western tourists requesting food with "no spice" and are prepared to make it that way. You may even wish they'd made it a little spicier.

When you're off the beaten path a little more, this likely isn't the case, and food will be quite spicy.
