In order to keep our expenses to the minimum Irina has always to search the fields and climb the trees for the CATCH of the DAY.
Dear Fellows ! Our last day in India today, we're heading out to Nepal tomorrow. We spent the last days in Bangalore to burn some time with our beloved friends Mahesh & Swetha and their families, then after got trapped into the probably most touristic place in entire India, called Agra in the state Uttar Pradesh. The famous Taj Mahal is situated here and somebody told us, we may not leave the country w/o visiting it.
Well ... Agra is a crappy place, just my honest opinion, everything's is double costly, all kind of coyotes jump on you once you leave the save hotel, trying to sell you sh.. looots of things. No matter how hard to deny, you gonna end up in a major master rip-off, that's for sure.
BUT ... the Taj will pay off all the hassle, so it was worth going there.
After 7 weeks in India, we're both more than ready for the next stop. We'll do our best to share our upcoming adventures, impressions ... with you. Till then we send you a very BIGG hug, we hope you're having a wonderful time, may you always do the right thing.
A bientot ...
