Reflecting at Jama Masjid

August 11th 2015
In Delhi most people choose a day tour via private car to view many of the nearby sights. We wanted to do something similar but take our time as we got to grips with this new country, India. Following a very hearty breakfast, we decided we would carry out a ‘do it yourself’ kind of day tour via the metro. This went against the hostel’s advice of hiring out a car but we wanted to see India fo ... read more

Hi we're Chris and P. We have quit our jobs and sold our house to follow our dream of travelling around the world for 12 months!!! Let’s jump back about 2 years - We're driving to P's friend’s house for an evening meal when she turns and says "I've been thinking..." And what a thought that was indeed. That thought turned into buying a dilapidated property and spending a total of 2 years 'doing it up' ourselves coupled with a new job and a wedding thrown into the mix for good measure.

Delhi Belly and Scammers!
While some of these sights seem pretty interesting, the scammers' stories are horrendous! That "Where are you from my friend?" etc is used lots in Morocco, but that scary business of following you takes stalking to a new level. Glad you've caught on to their tricks, you clever travelers, and as usual, I loved that you set out on your own to explore. P's new pants are gorgeous and those onion bhajis look to die for! Glad that the hassling will lighten up north!

Delhi Belly
It really was a hassle but luckily it did ease up from here. Never knew Morocco was similar, I place we have never travelled but I am sure we will. Regretfully we did not go up north and we had heard incredible things about it too. Would love to go back to travel more north but I guess that's another trip. Thanks, those Alibaba type of pants are a must in India, so breezy and fashionable. I could not wear them enough! :)
