Delhi.I feel like a local. I have not been anywhere near as intimidated as I thought I would in Delhi in fact I have felt very relaxed ever since I arrived... apart from the slight issue with the phone topup going a bit skewwhiff. I met a guy called Ajit through a friend a French girl from England I made in Pushkar. We met up a couple of times and as his mother lives in Allahabad he was ta

Lots to say about this place... soon...ish

YoSo far so good in the heading home department. Weather hot and muggy when we left both on Fri and the early part of Saturday. No much rain fortunately. Fri nite we stopped just before Atlanta that enabled us to go thru Atlanta early STy am and at that it was busy enough. It gets to be like a parking lot as you progress into Atlanta and we were doing bumper to bumper at 2

Today i feel like neardeath. I started feeling dodgy yesterday while I was sitting in a hammock outside our bedroom door and writing my blog. I felt a little bit achey and knew I was coming down with what Ed Sarah Will and Maddy had a few days ago. I also had a very bloated uncomfortable feeling in my stomach which wouldn't go away and which I'd put down to eating too much right before bed the

Ever since I arrived in India I have been thinking more and more about my heritage and where half of me originates from. My Dad's family are originally from Pakistan in the Punjab region and although he was brought up in Kenya his family are traditional Pakistani Muslims living now in Pakistan Kenya and England. My only involvement with my Dad's side of the family was for large family gathering

Wir befinden uns seit heute in Sdfrankreich bei Narbonne. Nachdem wir Peniscola verlassen hatten verbrachten wir noch zwei Tage in Torredembarra. Der dortige Campingplatz hatte gerade an dem Tag als wir ankamen die Saison erffnet. Wir waren die ersten Gste die dort eincheckten. Laut Campingfhrer sollte der Platz Tag und Nacht ruhig sein. Das war er auch als wir ankamen. Doch nach einer We

Amritsar is dirty noisy and smelly. We liked it so much we decided to stay 5 days.Let me explain the key attraction is the golden temple the holiest place in India for Sikhs. We went on day 1 in the midday sun and in all honesty I was ever so slightly frazzled by heat and underwhelmed. It's a temple it's golden. Um. But we went twice more early morning and late at night and were entirely

Anyway after that I packed up and cleaned the house up a bit i headed for Lima. I took a convicollectivo back to the center area where I then caught a taxi to Daniels house luckily his maid was outside and she let me in.

So a long day of travel behind us and one flight ahead and we will arrive in Bangkok. The journey has been long but very easy and straight forward. Omaha to Denver Denver to LA a final cheeseburger and fries with a Budweiser to wash it down then the 15.5 hour flight to Hong Kong where we are now. In total I think we'll be traveling for 30 hours but we have nothing to do but sleep when w

Vejret byder skiftevis paa slud og sne og saa overvejer man hvorfor daelen man tog frivilligt fra 25 graders varme og skyfri himmel i Buenos Aires. Isaer naar destinationen lyder paa Verdens Roevhul o Aarsagen maa findes et sted. Naturen selvfoelgelig Det er ikke mange steder der kan byde paa saa smukke omgivelser. Desvaerre eller charmen ved det om man vil er det dog fuldstaendig paa n

We rolled 90000 miles on the van we are borrowing whom we affectionately have named Balaam's Beast. If you are unfamiliar with who Balaam or his beast is check out Numbers 2224 or trusty Wikipedia . After about 2000 miles into our journey it is our desire that the Lord take us right where we should go and if we need to slow down adjust our route or just plain listen more carefully to G

Wow what an amazing Mother's Day we have had. To quote mum This has to be the most memorable Mother's Day ever We were up and out by 7am and our driver took us up to MutianYu a part of the Great Wall which we had been recommended by several friends. It was a chilly yet sunny start to the day but well worth emerging from our beds super early. It is a national holiday called Qing Ming this i

Ive been working so much that Im kind of in a constant daze not really knowing what day it is except in reference to where and what I need to be at any given moment. I recently wrote my little nephew saying I couldnt wait to see him on Saturday wrote it on a Friday meaning I would see him the next day and I even knew it but my brains a little scrambled right now. Having f

I'll also put on one or 2 pics of last weekend when I poopped up to Le
