Jawai

The rural swath of arid land dotted with ancient granite boulders and hills located roughly between Udaipur and Jodhpur of Rajasthan is the undefined Jawai area, named for the Jawai river than flows languidly through the region. Jawai is home to range of wildlife, particularly the elusive leopard, as well as Rabari nomads and pastoral villages, all of which must live harmoniously with the land.

Our private jet was a very important part of our trip. Most of the legs were less than 30 minutes, compared to six to 10 hours if we traveled by road. Overall, we had a fantastic trip to a new country for us. Remote Lands never fails!
