Suzanne's Kashmir

Author Suzanne Hogsett's lifelong dream was to travel to Kashmir-an often secreted rarely explored place in the far reaches of Northern India. She envisioned sleeping in a Victorian-era houseboat, plying a romantic lake in a gondola, touring Mughal gardens replete with waterfalls, visiting centuries old wooden mosques and Hindu temples, tasting unique mouth-watering dishes, and shopping in exotic markets.

In October 2019 she hopped on a plane and, against all odds in this often war-torn region, stepped out into a world of beauty, serenity and wonder.
