A link to my weblog where I am recording my trip to India.

I ask too many questions and my parents were smart enough not to get me any of those “Tell Me Why” books. They knew that for every question of mine it answered I would raise another 100! Something similar happened during the course of my Spanish lessons. After exhausting the patience of my tuto…

Mumbai, Goa (Anjuna, Baga, Calangute, Vagator), New Delhi, Agra

Lol, well, Mumbai is really humid ate the moment. I thought I would get used to it, but there are some days where you get slight breeze that helps a little but other days you just sweat, get hot and sticky, and it's doesn't change much at night time! I stayed at India Guest House in Colaba, the roo…

Goa is known for its beautiful beaches. I have already experienced Goa earlier. This time, I have gone to all other places.

1.Bought lots of books, since they're so cheap. My favourite is Shantaram - a real story about a prisoner who came to Mumbai and lived as a local in Mumbai's slum. Then you can do a mini tour of the town following his footsteps and places that he's been. 2. Eat local Indian food - remember - chick…

We had to leave relaxing Goa and appeared back in Mumbai. We did not have any hotel booked, because I simply had run out of time before leaving Europe, but we went to ask the agency in arrival domestic hall (cannot remember the name) and we were offered a 2* hotel in perfect area nearby Juhu beach.…

I have a million pictures from India.... On the other hand, cobbling together a story from my journals and letters and trying to do justice to how that country has coloured my memories and my perceptions from that day to this, has been, um, a challenge.   April 29th 1993   Delhi Indi…

But unfortunatelly we didnt have a lot of time ... We just stayed one day at the university of mumbai and carried out our questionnaire project th…

Despite being winter, the temperature in Mumbai was similar to the early summer weather we had just left in Australia, plus humidity. Thankfully, we stayed with Anton (my boyfriend)'s parents in Malabar Hill which is on a pennisula and receives a lovely sea breeze. On our first morning, I was lucky…

I didn't get enough of India this year.. so I'm going back. This time to see some of the north. I'm counting down the days!!!

at last arrived India.  As the pilot was announcing our arrival to Mumbai India, I was trying to get a glimpse of Mumbai from the plane.  I could see lights across the country, the piece of land covered with glittering lights somehow looks really vast, at a point where I was confused…

India isn’t like anywhere else in the world. Cows leisurely patrol the streets, monkeys steal fruit from street vendors, and then there are the people that inhabit this vast land. Something like 600 Million Indians live under the poverty line, and this became quickly evident on the hour drive thr…

Arrived at Mumbai from Dubai, i was really tired after a long trip from Dar es Salaam, Capital of Tanzania.  Went directly to my hotel in the Bandra neighborhood.   The city is simple immense...  Also poverty and luxury... All together in this strange and powerful controllable chaos.…

  Well ok there is no seatbelt, nor is there a chair to sit on! I'm on a sleeper bus heading on a 19-hour journey from Mumbai to Udaipur!  Why I thought this would be a good idea just 5 hours after getting off a 14-hour sleeper bus from Goa to Mumbai, I don't know!   Last time I w…
