I arrived in Jaipur on the 5th evening and the whole clan came to pick us up, which was great. I stayed in Jaipur until the 7th night when my train was leaving to go to Jaisalmer. So it left at 1 in the morning when it was meant to leave at 11:30, anyway I’m getting really used to the delays. Therefore I reached Jaisalmer on the 8th at about 2pm. I was sharing a cabin with a group of business men and other people kept coming into our cabin to take a picture with this one guy, which I found [View Full Entry]

Well as everyone probably suspects... yes I am still in Goa! Lol At least I’m in another part I suppose. Well I left Patnem on the 1st and Michael was meant to come with me but football over came him (boys will be boys! lol). Yeah so he has another match with the locals on Sunday, which is great because if they win the money goes to a school to help buy the children football boots, kits, balls etc... So I got on the bus to Margoa and thought yeah it will be like the bus ride on the way to [View Full Entry]

Well I reached Goa (Colva) on the 17th. Colva was so beautiful, it had a long stretch of a beach and there was a good mix of locals and tourist. Didn't do much really, just relaxed on the beach went swimming and soaked up the sun. We stayed there for three nights and left on the 20th to go to Patnem Beach further south, where the most beautiful beaches are located. So we went down to Palolem via local bus from Margoa, which was cool and only took an hour and a half. After reaching Palolem we caught an auto rickshaw [View Full Entry]

Well we got onto the train at 2pm in jaipur and reached Mumbai at 8am on the 14th. The train journey was funny, well as I said before we were in non- AC 2nd class and you have every kind of person walking down the aisles from chai wala's (one of the chai wala's had a rap going on it was too funny) to poor people, people dragging themselves with no legs down the aisle begging and even hijrah's (transvestites). Actually that’s a funny story this woman/man was going around making people give her money and really shouting and clapping. She/he [View Full Entry]

Hey finally reached jaipur on the 6th, one of my friends from Delhi told his sister (Priya) to pick me up when I reach there. I travelled from Delhi on a bus (it was a deluxe bus so I didn't do it local style!). So I left Delhi on a 7:15am bus, which was meant to reach Jaipur at 13:00. Hey it wasn't that bad I arrived at 14:20. Priya and her husband came to pick me up and I went to there house for lunch, where I met another backpacker who's staying with them from Holland. I think they just [View Full Entry]
