Anybody out there interested in visiting some of the under-rated parts of India, like West Bengal and Orissa? There is a lot to see and do there, from the Himalayan foothills to the rainforests, islands and tiger reserves, tribal villages, temples, tea gardens, etc.
It's a whole different country, not at all like Delhi/Rajasthan.
Via Tribewanted Sierra Leone, we bring you a video introducing the John Obey community where the first tribe members will set foot in October.

Discover our newest selection of sustainable tourism holiday ideas based in West Africa: a surf camp in Senegal. The country is famous for its Jazz Music Festival in Saint Louis, the infamous 'Ile de Goree' home to the 'Door of no return' through which slaves would be shipped over to the 'New World', and its overwhelming hospitality.
Here is the 'make a difference' part of their listing on the page we created on covery.co.uk" target="_blank">West Africa Discovery:
"The surf camp employs 6 locals’ full-time and 3 extra people in the high season. The surf camp brings a lot of business to the local community.
We only serve local dishes put together by a local cook and we try to use local products only, for example, for breakfast, we serve local made bissap and baobab juice. Different jelly made from local fruits and designed by the local village. For most of the week we serve local Senegalese dishes. All of the vegetables used are from local farms, and the fish is caught by the local fisherman around the island.
At the surf camp we always encourage our guests to bring their old clothes, and other stuff, to give away to the locals. The surfers who come to the camp are also very good at donating wetsuits, boards and other surf material to the local surfers. We always recommend the locals to give our guests the best local experience. On top of that, we also support all local surf events in the area.
All our energy comes from solar energy, and we collect plastic and metal for recycling. We have our own compost heap, and we collect rain water. Our hot water comes from a solar heating system.
All workers at the camp are from the local N’Gor village, and we perform English language lessons with them because most of our guests speak English. We also train our employees in hospitality."
