For as far back as I can remember, I have always wanted to visit India. As a child in England, I saw fragments of this country and its people all around me. As the former crown jewel of the British Empire, India has always played an integral part in English society. Whether loved or reviled, there's no denying it's impact on our collective conscience. When I moved to other countries, I would always maintain that connection through food, but I always knew that I would have to make the pilgrimage for myself some day. When Jona and I decided to stop in India for ten days, I was overjoyed. Safe to say, it's been a long, strange trip.
