- In this video I make my way to India on some of the longest travel days I have ever experienced! Arriving in New Delhi, I meet some friends at the hostel, go to Akshardham and see the most amazing water show (not featured in the video due to no phones allowed), the one and only Taj Mahal (my second World Wonder), and then I must catch a bus to ride up to Dharamsala.
Follow along on this new adventure of mine as I cultivate a new inner peace within this beautiful country.

Haha yes I had to sneak a video of the dancing! It was great meeting you too 🙌🏼
I’ll tag you in the vid ☺️
It's 2024 , solo girl travel in india is not big deal. Foreign still think we are in 1970s
Yes sometimes it feels like we are in 80s. Some foreigners really don't have a good experience in india...like gypsy in sneakers( Sussane bastings). You can watch their india trip specially Delhi wala video nad Goa also.
Yes solo girl travelling in India in 2024 is a big deal since everybody knows what sort of a pathetic misogynist and unsafe country this is ! Infact 1970s India was much safer and better for foreigners!!!! Come out of your pseudo- nationalistic mindset
Yet again, must say, really cool shots Rachel and top notch editing done very tastefully!
Thanks so much! 🙏🏼
Your excitement is contagious! What was the most surprising thing you encountered in your first week?
Awesome video! Great shots and music choices :) I am thinking to go to India soon :)) Contiune on your journey. Much love and many blessings to you
Thank you so much! You should go! I loved my experience in India. The good, the bad, the ugly, it was all beautiful. Blessings to you too 🙏🏼
@@rachelannepeterson thank you for sharing your experiences! If you ever visit Sri Lanka please let me know and I can recommend some places as I lived there for about 8 months! Much love and enjoy your journey through life 🙏❤️✌️

Lucky you, the camera work is just🔥🔥
Thank you so so much! I can’t wait to get an upgrade. This was all from my iPhone lol
@@rachelannepeterson A GoPro will be better
Your experiences within India will depend upon where you are going and how much you are spending. You can experience India like these people:
1) Victoria Magrath
2) Matt and Molly
3) Sean King
4) Backpacker Ben
Sean King chose hotels in India between US$ 20 to US$ 30 because these hotels have affordable bars. He used to spend evenings in the bars and he met several college students and became friends with them. He chose to experience cool weather in India, have Himalayan cream and see natural beauty so he visited Himachal Pradesh and really loved India.
Backpacker Ben is that guy who stayed in hotels costing US$ 5, roamed around in slums, hustled in street markets and ate street foods. These kind of foreigners are not interested in tourism in India, they want to experience Indian culture by seeing real and raw India. A lot of nationalist Indians don't like these kind of vloggers because they feel that they are ruining the reputation of India.
Among English vloggers only 10% of vloggers to India are like Backpacker Ben and Small Brained American.
However, in Russian, Korean and Spanish 90% of the vloggers travel India like Backpacker Ben and Small Brained American.
Thank you for watching and for all of this information. I am posting from a trip I already went on so this was a couple months ago now. Hope you like what’s to come! I head to Dharamsala for a two week meditation training and then up to Leh Ladakh to experience the beautiful mountain landscapes.
People like Backpacker Ben and Small Brained American are only really coming to India to see poverty, they don't treat the place with respect either.
Hey if you need any help in India just tell me I'll be there.
Thank you
Ok... Thankyou too 😂

❤❤
❤️
too much music, we want to hear you....ur reactions to food, people
lol I know! Audio on an iPhone suckssss so until I upgrade my equipment, music it is…
Need to DM your videos to BBC & CNN who keep saying India isn't safe for solo female travelers 😂😂
😂 yes, if anyone has any connections please do
NICE VIDEO 👍👍 ABONNE
Thank you for watching!
The reason why you have less views on this video is because people deny the fact that India is not only about Taj Mahal , stop posting Taj Mahal thumbnail representing India , India is more than Taj Mahal.
earlier creator used to get views about it , but it doesn't work anymore.
Totally agree 👍🏼 India is a wonderful and diverse country with so much to see and do. I loved my time there and I visited the Taj Mahal because I wanted to see it, the amount of people that watch my video doesn’t take away from that 🙏🏼 India was and always will be so much more to me than what is able to be shown in a couple short video clips.
Million dollar lips 💋 ❤
North India is a terrible place for foreigners. Be careful there.!.You would be so much more in peace in southern states.
I had a wonderful time in the areas I went to and made sure to do research and plan ahead. Would love to also visit southern states sometime in the future.
No mam IND is a safe country all over the whole place. You can enjoy your trip and welcome 😊
It's shameful that some people try painting a bad image of any part of India to a foreigner. In fact, it might have sounded disgusting and desperate to her as well seeing an Indian telling such a thing about his own country. Safety concerns are good but there are better ways to express.
@@gaurav-hn5zd North India would have been a much better place if you tried to improve yourself rather than find reasons to justify your deeds.
@@rachelannepetersonbeing Indian and from North Indian state , north india is not safe please it's a request to travel South state only for time being
I just wanna say that You really look like my ex, so i would like to be your friend on Instagram 😄❤️
