29th Nov: Arrived really early after my sleeper train journey and had a shower and went straight out, heading for the Ganges, which is a holy river. Lots of Hindu people come from all over India to die here, because they believe if you die here, you will go straight to heaven.  I walked all along and there are burning bodies going 24 hour a day at 4 different ghats (the steps leading down to the holy river). I saw a couple of bodies and its a bit like when L...

27th Nov: I had a 6 hour bus journey to Agra that took a little longer than planned due to a flat tyre! However, it flew by because I listened to Bollwood music for the whole time and it's my new found love! Once in Agra Iwent to see the Taj Mahal. As it was late, I just went round the back to see it because you don't have to pay! It did look quite impressive, but the view was poor from where I was. Anyway, I went and had a wander round and...

25 Nov: Arrived after another bumpy journey and soon realised I was back at another city. Jaipur is know as the Pink City and it was another shock after the laid back mellow town of Pushkar.

I made my way in to town and soon noticed how run down and dirty the place was. All the places in India have been dusty loud and smelly, with the roads co...

On my last night in Udaipur I was sick and spent all night throwing up and generally feeling terrible. I still made it early as I had a 5 hour bus journey to a rural village called Jojowar and it was pretty bumpy! At about 2.30, I made it to Jojowar. However, I'm afraid I can't tell you anything about the place, as I slept the whole time I was there and left at 9 the next morning!23rd Nov: Arrived at Pushkar at around 2-ish feeling a lot be...

19th Nov, Had a 6 hour bus journey that was hell! The roads were bumpy and my bum still hurts from the camel ride. Upaipur is known as the most romantic city in India and apparently Brad and Angelina have just been on holiday here, staying in a hotel known as the Floating Palace - slightly more higher in class than the place I'm staying! Mind you, my room is on the roof and has great views of the huge lake that surounds the city - perfect for a beer at night!...
