Days have passed slowly but surely, and finally tomorrow it's time to catch the train again. I haven't really packed yet, but as the process of “packing” will be this time something like throwing my light explorer a.k.a. sleeping bag, toothbrush, journal, camera, mp3 (with a superb voyage-collection to fit
every possible mood!) and some important papers inside the backpack and go, I'm not really that concerned about not having the time to do it. Yesterday was reading packing tips from one web-page, and after reading
this list, I panicked for two seconds about being very ill-prepared, but then, if I need something I'll buy it there, and if can't find it, I won't need it. Simple.
A well-known fact is that the Nordic people LOVE planning! So, surely we have one: the plan is to meet Emma at Indira Gandhi airport in New Delhi. We'll spend the first night in New Delhi, the next day we'll propably spend in the city buying some necessities and then head to the north as it will be super hot and the north is supposed to be a bit “cooler”. On the way we'll check the Sariska national park, most likely the city of Alwar (35km from Sariska), then move to Jaipur-area and check Amber (a city where the architecture should be amazing). Emma has heard positive stuff about a place called Pushkar, it's a holy city with a lake, some desert around, a peaceful place. So, that's a perfect moment to have a little rest. Then we're planning to do the trekking part in Uttar Pradesh, there the climat should be optimal at the moment, not too cold, not too hot. From there we'll move towards Nepal. Don't know how but we'll find out. Then we'll check how many days we'll still have left and make the rest of the plan depending on that. One option is to check Varanasi, the holy city next to Ganges river. The place is said to be pretty chaotic, bodies floting in the river and so on, and we decided to discuss about this place later. So, this is the rough plan and no doubt it might change! There should be loads of Internet-cafés everywhere, so I'll keep you updated!
