There are [41] stories from my trip: 2008-2009


Kathmandu, Nepal

NEPAL | Tuesday, 18 Nov 2008 | Views [569]

We descended into Kathmandu at 9.30am after circling the sky for 3 hours, anticipating whether or not the weather would clear enough to be able to land. The ice capped mountain cut through the clouds like the serrated edge of a knife. We found a room ... Read more >

Nawalgarh

INDIA | Friday, 14 Nov 2008 | Views [459]

8am, Pushkar bus station.  Blocked nose and scratchy throat from swallowing too much dust. The word 'conjested' springs to mind.  We board a bus so full that Matt falls out of the door backwards onto the road and I jump out behind him.  We pile into ... Read more >


My Indian Birthday

INDIA | Thursday, 6 Nov 2008 | Views [433]

I woke with a sore throat and stuffy nose.  I had planned an active day, in my head, of breakfast, camel fair then mountain walking.  By 10:00am I was too lethargic for any of the above.  I had resigned myself to a day in bed when Matt told me he had ... Read more >


The Post Office - Pushkar- Part 3

INDIA | Tuesday, 4 Nov 2008 | Views [641]

Along a dusty road and tucked behind some buildings lies the Pushkar post office.  We have just come from there now.  If not for the sign out the front it would be difficult to identify the building as a post office, particularilly when one is inside.... Read more >


Pushkar-Part 2

INDIA | Friday, 31 Oct 2008 | Views [425]

I can only liken Diwali night in Pushkar to something close to Guy Fawks Night on acid - cracker mania without any standard precautions.  Walking through the streets dodging bungers, with fuses so short they almost always blow up in your hand, I was ... Read more >

Holy Town of Pushkar

INDIA | Monday, 27 Oct 2008 | Views [431]

Namaste, After 10 hours on a dusty local bus from Agra we arrived in Ajmer and transferred immediately by 'taxi' (tuk tuk) to Pushkar. Hesitant to put ourselves through another long bus trip for a while we decided to stay here in Pushkar for 2 weeks.... Read more >

INDIA | Wednesday, 22 Oct 2008 | Views [518] | Comments [1]

New Delhi welcomed us at 8pm on Monday. At the airport a man stood with a place card with our names on it.  Predicting our jetlag we had pre booked a cab whilst in Tokyo to our guest house "Hotel,Cottage,Yes Please".  It was neither a hotel ... Read more >

Life of Pai

THAILAND | Friday, 10 Oct 2008 | Views [1149] | Comments [1]

Sawasdee Ka, Where to start, it's all a blur. We left Chiang Mai 3 days ago after Luke recovered.  We spent a night in a rooftop bar drinking and mingling with other travellers and after a few hours sleep had to wake at 6.00am for our bus to Pai, a ... Read more >

Chang Mai, Slip slop slap

THAILAND | Sunday, 5 Oct 2008 | Views [547]

It's Sunday morning. The tuk tuks are churtling past seeking the interest of hot lazy travellers.  The Chang Mai mafia-our taxi driver from the airport called them.  We have risen from our beds and flip flopped down the stairwell light footed after a 1 ... Read more >


Ton Sai, Krabi

THAILAND | Sunday, 5 Oct 2008 | Views [461]

Hey guys,   I cant access my world nomads page today so I thought i'd just send a bulk email while i'm in the mood for writing and post it later. I should mention that as I sit here writing in Krabi a procession of people banging drums with swords jammed ... Read more >


Hello from Hong Kong

HONG KONG | Friday, 26 Sep 2008 | Views [388]

Hey everyone, We arrived in Hong Kong last night and made it to our hotel a little after midnight after hitting some Hong Kong midnight traffic.  We were pretty exhausted after about 15 hours of transit but were pleased to find we had been upgraded ... Read more >
