Arrived in Tiruvannamalai (4 hrs from Chennai) in the southern state Tamil Nadu.

In the bus so many people a realised that my time schedule is getting really tight unfortunately, so I think I need to skip it. I am going to visit private families in Rahasthan anyway.After a 4 hour busride I arrived in Tiru not knowin...
