At William Creek a small town with a population of 16 people, where we were stranded during a flash flood, and it happened to be the day of the annual Gymkhana races, when this town hosted 150 people. There was obviously no place to stay, with people making their bookings well in advance. The community and other visitors all went out on a limb to provide any kind of hospitality they could, their cars, swags and sleeping bags for us to sleep in, and we really got an insider's seat to the best show of Australian hospitality ever. On a more recent trip, we discovered how getting lost truly is the best way to see a city. We were in Paris, and decided to walk down a nice looking street. Our eyes just kept dragging our feet forward, till a few hours later, we realized we had pretty much walked the entire width of the city, and seen little lanes and streets that we normally wouldn't have. It was magnificent.

We promise to teach, learn and share cooking to whoever's interested. And give them an understanding of the India we know.
