This photo is from June 1993 when I was travelling in India and Nepal.
We met this family on the banks of Ganges in Rishikesh. They were tourists like us, but domestic, from Rajasthan. They had come by bus from the desert state all the way to the Himalayan foothills.
Many times when we met domestic tourists, and locals as well, they asked us, where in India did we come from. We considered this quite funny being two blond girls from Finland.
The most common question was, of course, what our religion was.
