The 8 Best India Travel Guide Books - TRIPSAVVY - 12/09/19"This book takes a culturally minded look at women's safety in the country to inform women both before they leave and while they're in-country about how they can travel safely throughout the country. Written by J.D. Viharini, the book informs women on how to minimize the risk of problems while they're exploring the country by addressing and explaining cultural factors and mindsets. Chapters address how foreign women are shown in the media (promiscuously), standards of dress in India, the types of places that are and aren't safe for women to stay in, and what to do if you are sexually assaulted. Although, of course, the burden shouldn't be on women to avoid violence-it's a larger cultural issue-it's hard to change that in a single trip, and this guide does a great job of helping women navigate the country safely in the meantime. "- KRYSTIN ARNESON Updated 12/09/19 Krystin Arneson is a writer and editor based out of Berlin, Germany. She covers an array of hotels, products and destinations for TripSavvy.Lifeline to getting the most from solo, female travel"I met J.D. Viharini in Nepal recently and listened, first-hand, to accounts of her Indian travels. She is authentic, wise, experienced, expert in the advice she offers. Having travelled to 56 countries, read countless travel books and spoken to people all over the world, I was amazed at the tips I learned in reading this book. In addition, she speaks from a deeply embodied understanding of India, suggesting a nuanced approach to cultural competency, adopting an 'impression management' style of travel which offers an alternative approach to compromising one's own cultural values and identity. Fears are addressed and alleviated. Yet, this book is so simple, practical, easy and wide-ranging in application. Just excellent!"- Jo-Ann Zyla (reviewed on amazon.ca)

It's one of the first things we discover as children, reading and drawing: Maps have a unique power to transport us to distant lands on wondrous travels. Put a map at the start of a book, and we know an adventure is going to follow. Displaying this truth with beautiful full-color illustrations, The Writer's Map is an atlas of the journeys that our most creative storytellers have made throughout their lives. This magnificent collection encompasses not only the maps that appear in their books but also the many maps that have inspired them, the sketches that they used while writing, and others that simply sparked their curiosity. Philip Pullman recounts the experience of drawing a map as he set out on one of his early novels, The Tin Princess. Miraphora Mina recalls the creative challenge of drawing up "The Marauder's Map" for the Harry Potter films. David Mitchell leads us to the Mappa Mundi by way of Cloud Atlas and his own sketch maps. Robert Macfarlane reflects on the cartophilia that has informed his evocative nature writing, which was set off by Robert Louis Stevenson and his map of Treasure Island. Joanne Harris tells of her fascination with Norse maps of the universe. Reif Larsen writes about our dependence on GPS and the impulse to map our experience. Daniel Reeve describes drawing maps and charts for The Hobbit film trilogy. This exquisitely crafted and illustrated atlas explores these and so many more of the maps writers create and are inspired by--some real, some imagined--in both words and images. Amid a cornucopia of 167 full-color images, we find here maps of the world as envisaged in medieval times, as well as maps of adventure, sci-fi and fantasy, nursery rhymes, literary classics, and collectible comics. An enchanting visual and verbal journey, The Writer's Map will be irresistible for lovers of maps, literature, and memories--and anyone prone to flights of the imagination.

Werse und Ems - die Fahrt entlang dieser ruhigen und weitgehend naturbelassenen Flüsse bietet eine für Auge und Geist entspannende Runde von Extremen, die mit ihrem meist ebenen Verlauf auch Ihre Muskulatur verschont. Auf der idllischen Fahrt über Felder und durch Wäldchen kann der Blick zumeist schweifen, und stets befindet sich Wasser in der Nähe. Die Landschaft entlang der Werse zeigt sich außerordentlich abwechslungsreich, sei es als Zeuge der Industriekultur, später in landwirtschaftlicher Prägung und zuletzt als romantische Auenlandschaft. Neben zahlreichen Städten und Städtchen treffen Sie auf drei Landesgartenschauen und passieren am Unterlauf der Werse eine Reihe von Mühlen. Der Ems-Radweg umwirbt den noch schmalen Fluss und führt Sie dabei sowohl über die üppigen Parklandschaften des Münsterlandes als auch durch pittoreske Städtchen direkt am Fluss und vorbei am Kloster Marienfeld.
