The Adventurers Insight

Since getting back from India I try and be more involved with fairtrade stuff and I’m much more appreciative about everything I have. It was such an amazing experience I’d love to go back for a gap year.

I was very shocked at how badly some of the women are treated in the commercial factories and the struggles they go through. It was also unbelievable the attention we got from shop assistants when we went to a department store one day after filming – we felt like Paris Hilton, it was weird!!!

Martha and I did make one new best friend in India – Hand Sanitiser, we were obsessed!! But none of us got ill, so it must have helped.
