Our way to India was very indian - to put it shortly. ;-) Let's start from the beginning. As always, we had booked the cheapest flight available on the internet.

What good travelers!

Crazy, from Jaipur -Dehli-Kochin.The seller, I know, go 4_5 days by train from Kerala to Kaschmir,Rajasthan, ... Its not carneval, its temple Festival season. If you stay, like me last year, very closed to the Tempel, its a good brainwash. 5 days, 24 hours music, dance, very special dance, the dancers have a education over many years.....So many stories, smells,taste,.... enjoy it:-)
