Well, have we got a competition for you! Thanks to Lonely Planet and Intrepid Travel we've got the trip of a lifetime for one lucky person and their guest to win.

The Trip

The prize is a two week Intrepid adventure in India for two people. You and a friend will join locals on their trains, in their villages and even in their homes on this journey through the heart of Rajasthan. Immerse your senses in the exotic spice bazaars of Old Delhi, catch a Bollywood blockbuster in Jaipur, go in search of the elusive Bengal tiger in Ranthambhore and fall in love with the opulent temples and palaces of this colourful Indian province. Details can be found on our special India page and Intrepid's website.

To Win

We'd like you to break out your thesauri and find the five most descriptive words you can think of to describe India. The winner will be the most evocative descriptions as chosen by our independent judge.

Runners up

It's a massive prize to miss out on but 10 runners up will each receive a fantastic Lonely Planet India guide.

To Enter

Just enter your five words in the boxes below!

Competition closes at midnight GMT on 15 March 2012.

Books everyone MUST read. Books everyone WILL read. Books everyone ABSOLUTELY COULDN'T PUT DOWN. Books THAT ARE JUST LIKE TOTALLY THE MOST AWESOME THING IN THE WORLD AND THAT EDWARD IS JUST SO GORGEOUS AND THAT BELLA IS A SKANK. Books that I WOULDN'T BE SEEN DEAD READING. Books that ARE SO MUCH BETTER THAN WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS READING. Books THAT I'M NOT ACTUALLY READING BUT WANT EVERYBODY TO THINK THAT I AM READING...

Well, you get the picture.

So, what's the deal?

We're putting together some new bookmarks to go out with every order and one of the themes we came up with was 'Books everyone should read'. Potentially interesting, potentially troublesome. Obviously, we're not going to stand up and tell everyone what they should read so we thought we'd ask for some suggestions. But, with a twist.

Because we ship to over a 100 countries all over the world we thought it would be nice if you could give us the names of books to read in your particular country.

We've got a drop down list below with the countries and space for five entries, and they don't all have to be in English either. Would be nice to mix it up a bit because we all know that people are the same where ever we go, that there is good and bad in ev'ryone. We learn to live, we learn to give each other what we need to survive, together alive - books!

If you enter your name and address we'll have a little pile of books to give away to the lucky winner out of a hat.

• But oh, if we call the whole thing off
• Then we must part
• and oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart

ps All the titles in the graphic above are some of the books on a should read list I would have made in 1992. I'd never suggest they should go on any such list today. They are merely for illustrative purposes :-)

We all know that Valentine's Day is a shameless attempt by card companies and flower shops to try and rake in a few more spondoolies (and why not) and that getting Valentines from a stalker or not getting cards at all can lead to all sorts of distress but still we persevere and aren't we all just a bit happier with a skip in our step when a loved one leaves us a softly-scented envelope, SWALK.

Anyway, to celebrate the day we have 4 signed hardback copies of Carol Ann Duffy's Love Poems to give away to the 4 lucky customers to tell us who wrote the beautiful lines of poetry below. (It's a trick question as there are two authors but give us the name of the most recent)

• "In my sky at twilight you are like a cloud
• and your form and colour are the way I love them.
• You are mine, mine, woman with sweet lips
• and in your life my infinite dreams live."

Entries by 15th February please.
