So I'm going to India tomorrow with college/uni for 3 weeks! Doing a weeks trek around the Himalayas where we will camp obviosuly. Then for the 2nd week I'll be doing project work, i.e. starting the foundations for a school, doing the pipelines n shit (fuck knows how thats gonna turn out), then for the remaining days we'll have will be used for rest and relaxation, visiting the Taj Mahal n stuffz, so if I die it was nice playing with u all!

Welcoming u to India :)
the place is wank
I've been there twice, once @ 15, and once when I was little.
If you experience even a fourth of the festivities that occur there you'll know why it's not overrated.
Go for Holi, Diwali, Uttarayan(me being guju), Rath Yatra, and a shit load more then you'll understand why people go there.
i'm curious, did you go to a westernised area of india or somewhere more traditional?
the closest i came to that was when we visited a temple up in the mountains...saw some jungle on the way up and baboons chased our car :D was too young to remember where it was exactly though
Also been to Kerala once b/c of my dad's friend, was too little at the time to actually explore the area though.
Well I can't change your opinion on it, each man to his own I guess.
