Carmel becomes Muslim

So, sometimes it is difficult to be a white person in another country, constantly being hassled, etc. Whenever you walk down the street the taxi's pull over thinking you need a ride, or someone is trying to sell you something, or a begger wants money. So Carmel (from Ireland) decided to try out being Muslim, contiplated getting the outfit and all so when she walked down the streets of Jaipur so wouldn't be hassled. The man was very happy to help her, people who walked by stopped to watch, or laugh. We were laughing. Here are a few photos and a video

Ok, so she didn't buy the Burka or become Muslim, but it would give you peace and quiet.
