About this blog

My feet are itching again, so I'm off to see another place I've always longed to visit - India. This time, no camping, so my pitching skills are redundant. However, I will need to quickly learn how to deal with touts, extreme poverty (not mine!), Delhi belly (hopefully nothing too bad), crazy driving and pollution. I'm travelling around Rajasthan in NW India for 3 weeks and then fly to Chennai (Madras) for 3 weeks around South India in Tamil Nadu and Kerala.
