The day had arrived when we had to leave the safety on India, place we got to like a lot and we got to know how it works there. It felt a little bit like starting the travels all over again, going to a new country. Different time zone, different currency, different language, different people... A little scary but it turned out it could only get better! :) As an inseparable part of our travels, I got really sick the morning we were leaving Digha and spent just as awful day being extra sick on a bus and on a plane. Of course, the day when I got better, Davy got sick too but I guess we are getting use to it and we are sightseeing even when we are sick and we are getting better ... read more

So after Davy got sick and a little better again, we had only one last day to spend in lovely Varkala. After everything that has happened in last few days, I'm taking back all my objections against Varkala (such as prices cos it got even worse in Delhi and Agra and the hassle about everything as well) and we will definitely be coming back there. We enjoyed the warmest day of our stay, the warmest sea, the nicest dinner and what was amazing, when we were in the water swimming, a tiny black and white fish started swimming around Davy, probably attracted by his shorts of the same colour and stayed swimming around Davy for maybe 2 hours. We said goodbye to our puppies and got ready for the north of India. It was a very ... read more

At this very exact moment, we were supposed to be sitting on a plane to Delhi... meeting Indu... seeing Delhi tomorrow... getting overnight train to Ramnagar..... But Davy got this awful food poisining (we blame a beef steak from Hungry eye restaurant which either wasn't fresh or wasn't cooked properly) and he was feeling very sick for last two days so we had to cancel our flight and we are still in Varkala. I was really scared the first night when Davy even couldn't hold in water but he seems to be getting much better, he took some pills and rehydratation sachets we had with us and a local doctor gave him some pills as well. It was kinda funny when Davy got clear soup with a plain bread after not eating for the whole day ... read more

So we travelled south to Alleppey on Sunday and commuted on our first bus which was a great experience, it was over loaded completely and we were the only tourists on it so it was intimidating to begin with but really cool. There was a young boy who had no space at all so he sat on my lap and all the indians were smiling, it was cool. We arrived and got an amazing homestay called the Lemon Dew,a few young lads like mid twenties were running it and it had a very rasta feel to it so I felt right at home. It had an open top area on the roof where everyone had a few beers and a good oul social chat every night and it was great to get info about other places ... read more

Day 1 So here we are :) All was going really well from the time we left prague, we got to Turkey safe and sound and had a little wait in the airport the only bad thing was that a beer cost us a tenor,so we splashed out and had only 1, we then flew to Mumbai where the shit hit the fan, i wanted to kick the shit out of someone or anyone. first of all the flight was delayed by a half hour, then it was delayed by another 2 and a half hours, them my iphone wouldnt charge as everyone elses did charge and the beers and food was unbelievably high priced so we sat sulking until our stupid plane finally arrived, remember these were all connecting flights so we were literarly travelling ... read more
