After landing in India i take myself out to the taxi stand. Its a little hectic but i keep my cool. I find a driver and show them the address of where i want to go, so i can meet up with Steph. He tells me that he knows where it is and we agree to a price (after some persistent bargaining by me). I have to then walk over to the cab, which doesnt really look like one so I ask all sorts of questions... Read Full Entry

I am a passionate pretty easy going kinda aussie girl. I am dedicated to my love of the environment, my aussie sports, my friends and family and have now decided to travel the world. My close friends and family call me Moo and i am well known for getting "all fired up". Yeah i know i like to go into detail about my travels but i hope you at least like the photos. I love my life and the challenges it throws at me. I also love quotes such as "Life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself"...... full info

Hindi, Indian language...
Hey Amanda, your blog is a great read! I liked the way you described the Taj. Spellbinding isnt it? And oh...by the way, Hindi is the official language of India, not Indian. (25 other recognised languages, 1 too many!) Next time, try head south to Kerala/Konkan coast....theres a lot to see AND its a lot cleaner (but just as crowded!). The people are a bit more laid back too.
