Theres not much more to say about Jodhpur – its an incredibly busy place with motor bikes, rickshaws and horse carts everywhere, with the occasional camel thrown in. Traffic at busy road junctions is a nightmare and pollution everywhere.

The chaotic scenes of Jodhpur station were just a starter for this crazy city. I had no idea how big the place was before arriving – but there’s over a million inhabitants and most of them are on the street at any given time.

A day behind now I’m trying to recall the trip from Dharamsala.
I decided to leave after waking up early to the sound of a broom sweeping the path outside. I haven’t mentioned the path yet as I was trying to make McLeod Ganj sound nice, at least while I [...]
Sunday 20th and Monday 21st March
Still here in McLeod Gang. Sorry if that a bit boring but its been really nice to chill out here without rushing off somewhere else all the time.
