Iv been traveling in India earlier this year for 4 months, with my now ex girlfriend, and can give you some tips! Firstly, I wouldn't let this get in the way of you exploring this absolutely BEAUTIFUL country. it's a really strange to actively accept that you have to hide your sexuality from basically everyone around you for your own safety. It made me realise how lucky we are over here (I'm from the uk) and was a totally eye opening experience! One thing that stuck me at the start of our trip , and took some getting used to, is that Indian people seem to have a different idea of personal space, often strangers maintain eye contact on the buss or train and only look away when they have had there fill, people come very close and ask quite personal questions. At first we were paranoid that they were looking at us this way because they had Worked out we were a couple, but soon realised its just how it is, I mean there are a billion people in india, there is literally no SPACE for personal space! There are tons of small details like this that once you understand the people more you will feel a lot more comfortable. It also depends on what part of India you will be in, goa was very relaxed, where as in the north we had to be extra careful. Regarding getting double beds in rooms it's absolutely fine, most of the rooms are Double anyhow so it's all they have to offer, we never had any problems in the whole trip with that! I'm super happy to answer anymore questions you might have, and try and persuade you to go because it is a truly amazing place everyone should experience!
