Deryck - Chan CQ

Chan CQ Hi there, this is deryck here and you are entering this page at your own discretion, so if you are offended by my language, thats your own problem, don't mean to be cruel, but thats the way it is children. Anyways, my traveling consist of 2 parts; Southeast asia tour from 2jan07 to 12feb07 and the australasia tour from 10apr07 till late jul07. You are so welcome to cruise over and check out what's happening to me, I'll be updating it once every 2 or 3 days, so do watch out yeah. And bear these words, Out there is everywhere. Well the reason im doing all these crazy stuff where few singaporeans do is because I have a freaking long break before I enrolled into my University course(10months break? wtf) I think if not now, when? So better get my lazy arse off to see what the outside world looks like before I join the adulthood of working 247 in offices with internal politics and all. and also, by doing this, i will have great stories i can share with my family, my friends, my children, and my children's children. Its a historical point for me, means alot. Though you readers might never felt what i felt there, I will make it as imaginable as possible to you guys. Enjoy reading chaps.

Some tried to sum up the site as a teardrop on a face of eternity. Its really, really grand to see something like this in your lifetime.
Taj Mahal marks the last and most important Visit in my entire India trip. I swear I never leave India without going there and I did it. Though many shits happened along the way...first heard about riots in New Delhi due to politician uprisings, then no train tickets @ mumbai, then no bus operations in Delhi due to Shiva's birthday and their metro subway construction inconveniences. I'll say its worth the visit in your life. [View Full Entry]

Nothing too grand worth talking. just picture perfect.
Akbar's Masoleum and Agra Fort Finally after all the hassle(car crash and fucked traffic from Delhi), I am at Agra, which is like 200km away from New Delhi. It was kinda luck as I just got to realise that Taj Mahal closes on Fridays and today is Thursday 3pm. Had to rush again. This is the most hectic time schedule ever in India after the lazy 8 full days spree at Mumbai. First to Akbar's Masoleum where his tomb lays there, then to Taj Mahal. Agra fort pictures you see here are actually for tomorrow. THIS IS BACKBLOGGING. I just though [View Full Entry]

NO TIME FOR LONG GRANDMOTHER STORY. Time is always on a rush so to say. So pictures will explain my days. This is the entry that runs from Mumbai on 16th to New Dehli on 17th and on the same day proceeding towards Agra where Taj Mahal and Agra Fort lies. Mumbai to Delhi takes 1305km and 1 full day by Rajdhani Express (train) that costed me 2295Rupees to reach there. [View Full Entry]

Day 6 14th July Another day has gone, and I and nothing else better to be done than exposing myself to local movies and of course Hancock. One's at 3pm and latter at 8.15pm. Had a terrible if not horrific brunch which sort of disabled my appetite for the rest of the day. THERE IS NO FOOD THAT I LONG TO EAT, NONE! Call me picky. Anyway I had the plan of going to get the movie stubs, then head over to Chowpatty beach for a Loner's stroll, in the end the timing didn't meet, and I felt lazy to move [View Full Entry]

Death is running. And I'm counting it. Pretty much did nothing today. Held myself up at 9am today, had breakfast and went to hunt for cheaper hotels. Sunbaked for an hour over Colaba Causeway, went horlan and overshot the street i was looking for. [View Full Entry]

of all my life i'd say that this is the slowest ever moving boat on earth, if not universe. thanks to the choppy waters, if not this piece of crap won't even scooch
So I call it Elephanta Island Day. Set off 9am in the morning. Here's some Mastercard Commercial: 2Samosas and a cup of Chai 42Rupees, Boat ride 120Rupees, Almost puked out the samosas on the boat, Priceless. Headed out to the Apollo Bunder at Gateway to India and got the boat tickets. took them 1 whole hour to travel 11km across the Arabian Sea. i think the boats were running on a jet ski motor. The caves inside weren't that amazing to hang around, but the island did exhaust me for the day. Hills and stairs sweats my ass. Nevertheless got to [View Full Entry]

That night...
from Bangalore to Mumbai, 12am pit stop and its freezing outside!
After 19 hours of gruesome bus ride(which i almost puked), Mumbai is total different from all the cities i've been to. NO MORE DOSAI IDLY CHAPPATI WOOHOOO sick of those food. no offence but every meal includes that and no varieties baby. I realised there are more vegans compared to mumbai. LONG LIVE THE MEAT. You don't know how i hard i've tried to worship the meat god everynight and after every veg meal. BTW Current location is at Hotel Volga II, 33 Causeway House 3rd Level Room 215, Smth Bhavat Singh Road, Colaba, Mumbai. Here's my new Airtel phn no. [View Full Entry]

Back at his place for the last night here. Will be heading towards Mumbai on a 19 hour bus journey. Initially I thought its 19 hours how far can it be, taking into account that buses are ridiculously snail-like here. Well the map begs to differ. [View Full Entry]
