There´s that rain coat again. That is well travelled. Enjoying the blog. Keep writing. With the number of people who have taken your photo it is almost like you are a minor celebrity over there now. Pretty cool.

Lovely description
Great description - very good observations. The frustrations of living a common man's life in India make recycling sound like over indulgence. But I completely agree with your sense of disgust at the state of things. Hopefully, things are improving with greater awareness and I will see a change when I visit Hem Kund next.

I love motorbikes!! If anyone is going to damage me on a motorbike it will be myself. Possible repeat of Thailand last summer (which never got blogged about cause I'd given up by that point). Still have a scar on my leg!

i spent a few days in Rishikesh and one day in Haridwar during the Khumbamela in April ~ what a crush of humanity that was ~ i found the locals in Rishikesh to be just as friendly, if not more so, than in the rest of the northern tier of India however ~ and i found the spiritual seekers there to be non-intrusive ~ i did find though that the wandering sadhus in Rishi to be in the 'tourist business' ~ but not at all in a threatening way ~ India is great if every traveller does as does you and i........... relax and let India buffett you along in her own unique way ~ you'll get much more out of her and it will serve you well ~

Funny blog, though upset you weren't more disturbed by all the hippy-dippy nonsence, as it would have been more grit to your caustic millstone! I was not a fan of the place, seemed to be almost entirely ran to give inappropriate spiritual succour to a bunch of fake western fakirs and troubled gapyearers. Haridwar, which is closeish, I found more enjoyable.

Haha cheers, thanks so much! I didn't realise there were actual readers of this blog, aside from my mum and my housemates if they're bored at work... Glasto was amazing this year!! The weather was perfect, not a drop of rain, Ive never been to a festival like it. Where in India are you gonna be when you get here? Any tips on what to see and do are appreciated, since you're clearly India veterans...

Just liked what you wrote
Hey Jennifer or Jenniferious to be precise. It was really interesting to read your journal. I am quite amazed by the fact that how travellers from around the world happen to come by India and visit all around. I am a traveller too but i havent got a chance to travel around the world (or probably havent been able to coz its quite expensive to go out) anyways hope you enjoy your rishikesh trip and your journey further ahead. Infact, You can opt for Sikkim right now. Its beautiful out there! Especially Gurudongmar Lake!!! I am sure it ll be a medic trip for you. Keep writing. you can let me know for interestin places and travel plans especially towards goa and area. I am from pune. HAVE FUN! Ryan. Definitely Notorious :-p haha

Haha Alix I was warned off Paraghanj as well which is of course why I had to stay there! SUCH a dump, and you should see it now it's half demolished, horrendous. Can't believe you still haven't got the OSCE out of the way!! I was seriously about to lose it this time two weeks ago, I couldn't have taken much more. Good luck and hang on in there!! Where are you going for elective fun times? Jodhpur and Dharmsala and on my list for sure. xxx

Advice
When in Delhi always try to take Delhi Metro as iti s cleanest and comfy. Secondly while traveling always book AC chair car or AC sleeper class in the train. Third advice prefer deluxe buses. Hope you enjoy the trip. I am just a frequent visitor to this site, orginally from Delhi, now in Canada but Ilove my country so visit here and see how things r going.
5th July 2010

lol Paraghanj is def a dump! My flatmate who is from Delhi told me under no circumstances should i stay there and i knew sraight away it would be my backpack hole i was looking for! Me and Shush had god knows how many people take photos of us in Bangladesh, it is very strange! You must go up North to Dharmsala and go to Raj - we absolutely loved Jodhpur, was amazingly beautiful. Im sooooo jealous!!! Ive got my OSCE next week to get through before i can safely say i've made it through 4th year. xxxxxx

Truth will out
Don't you go smearing this medium just because you didn't like his insights. Do we argue Jenny? Yes, sometimes we do. Is it always your fault? Well I think it is. The medium with the giant gold boat thinks it is. How much more evidence do you need Hulse? Personally I want to buy the guy a drink. . . .

HA HA HA HA HA I would have paid a lot of money to see this. We will just have to find you some huge spiders in Thailand so you can prove your not still a big wuss, I am not sure if I believe you've made such progress!
26th June 2009

Ha....
My words to you, my culturally-accepting, extremely arachnophobic friend, are these: 'I am impressed'. x
13th June 2009

You're right, you did... but not that same night, so I must have written this blog entry before you made your beer bong debut. Would you like me to go back and amend it to set the record straight? xx

You bloody liar!
Ok Jen I just read this entry. I think you'll find I DID do a beer bong, admittedly not as well as you but I have photos and a lack of memories to prove it thank you very much!
