India - Impossible.
Impossible is my favourite word, and yet I end up doing the impossible.
Girls - Gemma and Rose were up for it, and they forced me into it. Bugets were shoe string, and the plan was to do bag packing.
Trains was the suggestion given by my Dad, but I had heard from other Indian friends how atrocious Indian train stations were. So I started doing my search on alternate ways of travelling in India.
Asked a few people online, and soon I found ticketvala.com. An online booking services for Indian volvo, basically from all the major places to all the major places.
Now I am in India and I've already done quite a bit of North, travelling in Volvo's is much better as first they are clean(and air conditioned), and also you get to see a lot of India, while trains are dirty, and all the ac trains don't give you any picture of india, and too fast as well.
Best part, it was the best way of booking tickets, so simple that I've planned my rest of the journey, to goa, and then to further south, with the help of ticketvala as well.
Well done guys! Thanks for making my Indian trip memorable. Hope you continue good work.
cheers,
