1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    my partner and i wish to spend several years in india to do humanitarian work and pursue our spiritual paths; however, it seems that one can only obtain a visa for six months at a time. is there any way around this?

    I was informed that you can apply for a 10 year visa in San Francisco and Manchester. In Kathmandu you can apply for 5 year visas but you'll have to pay some baksheesh to get it. It helps if you have a letter from some place saying that you will be there studying yoga or doing humanitarian work.
