Hi there, I'm Catherine, the heart behind Discover Life Travel Indian Tours and Mother Masala Tours.
My philosophy is simple: "To Discover Life, Travel!"
My first journey in India transformed me completely.
From balancing on tiny boats with water seeping in, to encountering cows shopping in markets, each moment taught me about joy and resilience in unexpected places.
India's magic lies in its contrasts – ancient temples carved into rugged cliffs, majestic forts echoing with history, and vibrant palaces showcasing timeless grandeur.
But it's the everyday moments that truly capture your heart: the warmth of local families, soulful echoes in narrow lanes, and quiet moments of reflection at historic sites.
Over the years, India's rich tapestry of experiences and deep spiritual connections have shaped my understanding of life itself.
Even challenges become opportunities for growth, like the time a natural disaster led to an impromptu American BBQ with friends from Kids Health India.
Today, I craft each tour to celebrate these beautiful moments of chaos, humility, and joy.
Join me in discovering not just India's iconic sites, but its vibrant spirit.
