Travelling light - Varpu V

Varpu V The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.
Marcel Proust

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain

When spotted a very cheap Ryanair-flight straight from Tampere to Dublin, all we could do was to book and go! You always need a little get away-break once in a while anyway, eh? So, after a little car ride to Pirkkala on a cold, gray Wednesday noon we took the plane and soon we could already enjoy the direct sunlight above the fluffy clouds. Spectacular! Dublin airport was really nice and easy, directly when walking out there were the bus stops so could take the bus heading to town. You've got couple of alternatives: the more expensive bus by Airlink (6e) [View Full Entry]

What has happened to New Delhi? This place just feels so different than a month ago! Or maybe the change has happened to us. But anyway, Delhi is just great. Still polluted, noisy, slightly chaotic, very hot (they had some heavy rain on Thursday, the monsoon was due to arrive on 29th, but so far it's been dry as in Sahara), but it doesn't matter at all. Maybe we feel like this because it's our last morning in India. The morning sun was warm and gentle, we were walking in the Main Bazaar trying to find a nice breakfast place [View Full Entry]

You can take a boat ride around the lake or just from one side to another. We bargained the price to 80Rs, and the trip was really nice option to walking down the street with heavy packbacks!

The New Delhi train station
The New Delhi train station
+40 degrees, masses of people, smell of foods sold at the station, all the sounds. It's an experience itself.
Finally it was time to say goodbye to Delhi! Emma and I said bye for the boys after a really nice evening at the Metropolis Restaurant in the Main Bazaar-area (they had the best walnut-brownie ever, and the atmosphere was really nice- kind of a cool break from the noisy street-life of Delhi!). The air was still almost burning hot at 22h as we took the taxi for the Old Delhi train station about 8 km from New Delhi. Taxi was a great option after numerous auto-rickshaw-trips which are so noisy and stressing. The train was supposed to leave at [View Full Entry]

Still in New Delhi. Last Saturday I waited Emma and the guys five pleasant hours at the domestic aerport. Wasn't bad at all, despite the +43 degree heat outside, the waiting hall was really cool. Finally the plane from Goa arrived, and we got ourselves a taxi. The two Norwegian guys are super nice and relaxed, and it felt also safer to have some masculinity around! The first impression about New Delhi at night was a bit chaotic, buses, taxes, bikes, people, dogs, smell of burning rubber, traffic pollution, lots of noise from the traffic...Anyway, we got to Paharganj (later [View Full Entry]
