Book Review – Holy Cow: An Indian Adventure by Sarah Macdonald
I just finished the book Holy Cow, a memoir about an Australian’s experiences living in India. It was recommended to me to be a a good book to read before you came to India to get a feeling for the country – or to scare you off. Of course I didn’t end up starting the [...]
