British Columbia For The Weekend Anybody?

When you love to travel, like I do, you’re always looking for the next new place to visit.  Well have you ever thought about a nice visit to British Columbia?  If you haven’t then maybe I should warn you that when I speak of British Columbia we are talking about the place that is on the western most province in Canada that is known for its splendid beauty (not the other Columbia).

A Bed & Breakfast in British Columbia could be just the quaint place to rest your head that you’d really love.  And don’t forget that in the winter of 2010 British Columbia will be sponsoring the Olympics.  When you couple that with the infinite beauty of the wildlife, nature, and people in British Columbia, it isn’t hard to see British Columbia as a place you might want to travel to before you die!

Keep in mind that whether or not you are looking for a quaint Bed & Breakfast in British Columbia or a regular hotel, you’ll be sure to find all sorts of outdoor activities to engage in.  You can choose to stay on the islands, Cariboo Country, the Sunshine Coast, or any other other region in British Columbia that you find fits your liking.  Whatever you choose, you’ll be sure to have a good time, and come back with tons of great photos to share with those who stayed back home.

The India in British India

British India is a different India that we would know had the British never intervened.  The beginnings of what we know today as “British India” was began as a simple trade relationship.  Later on India would take on so much of the character of the British that the term British India was eventually born. 

Let us never forget that for a couple of centuries the British ruled a significant portion of India.  One of the methods employed by the British was to create dissension between the classes.  Upper class individuals were fully indoctrinated with the ways and customs of the British.  The British in India manipulated its people in order to strip them of their land’s wealth and labor.

Though the term “British India” was cemented close to a century of rule by the British crown, the influences can still be felt today.   Between 1858 and 1947 the British imposed themselves on the subcontinent of India with their way of living and being.   These days British India is no more, but the remnants of their time of rule can still be felt in different parts of the land.

The history of British India will always be one of opposing forces pushed together by colonialism.  The supposedly enlightened way of the British was met with the deeply rooted social customs and values of India at the time.   British India, it still sounds strange to even hear.
