India » Last week in India: Darjeeling
Relieved to have a tourist bus with sleeping seats, we jumped into our last Nepali cab to the bus station! Nevertheless, the fact that we got a bus screaming for renovation and two other passengers hade the same lovely seats as us ( meaning in the very back where you cannot move it for a mm!! ) was not a big surprise. After some struggling we ...

India » Agra / Varanasi
Before we left Agra, our new friend Shalab showed us another school that they are running, Prelude Public School. We could tell that the kids has everything in this school, from yoga classrooms, to meditation rooms, computer classrooms, to swimming pools and horse riding tracks. The sweetest toilets for the smallest and cricket fields for the older. Several school buses parked outside, ready to pick up ...

He also showed us Taj Mahal from behind, from the garden where a black Taj Mahal was supposed to stand. We were positively surprised by Taj Mahal ...

India » Delhi
After the party at Niharikas, we woke up in the early morning to catch our flight to DELHI !! We were actually very surprised of the metro, that is developed to a higher degree than in many European countries. And the Airport express that took us to the centre of New Dehli was very modern and "high class". We perceived Delhi very different from Mumbai at ...

India » Another day in Palolem
Our PLAN was realized today… Or almost at east…we didn’t wake up as early as we wanted since Mr Moonsoon was visiting us again… Last night, after getting some henna, we decided to do some laundry (see pics), but unfortunately without electricity our fan doesn’t work and it is still wet! :( We will see tomorrow. Today, we did some chilling at the room, waiting for ...

India » Palolem (Goa)
Yesterday, with (temporary) no electricity at our room in the little family guest house Somia, we decided to enjoy a meal and go around in Panaji - the capital of Goa. The city has a strong Portuguese influence not only when it comes to infrastructure it occurs, but also with the tradition of siestas. We had to finish up our meal, since the restaurant was closing ...

India » Goa
On Sunday we joined a bowling competition between different companies in Mumbai with our hosts Amrish and Vishal. Andrzej had to jump in since they were one man short, and he rocked! He helped their company a lot... at least in the first round ;) In the afternoon we decided to go to Goa one day earlier, not to loose time. We will try to get ...

India » Mumbai
“God morning, this is the captain speaking, unfortunately we cannot land in Mumbai at the moment due to the weather conditions and we have to fly for another hour, to Hyderabad and wait there for Mumbai to open the line. An aircraft of this size is not able to land anywhere else”. The minus with a Jumbo Jet : ) We lost 3 hours waiting in ...
