Jaisalmer, India
We've made it! All 6 of us in one piece, who'd have thought it! Swiftly polished off a nicely chilled beer and now pool side again in a luxury 5 star, we thought we deserved it! Camel treks and parties to come as well in the next few days, life is good!
Pokaran, India
Finished yesterday in our nicest hotel of the trip! Set in an old fort, the pool, buffet and general surroundings were incredible! However despite this pleasant end, the rest of the day wasn't as smooth with one of the tuk tuks rolling! Luckily only 1 person was on board at the time (Alex) and he is absolutely fine!
Rajasthan, India
Just the 360km drive yesterday! The weather was great, the roads were smooth and the tuk tuks were (not literally) on fire! 2 more drives and then time to relax in the deserts of Jaisalmer, we cannot wait!
Uttar Pradesh, India
Spent yesterday in Agra visiting the taj mahal (in the rain!) and fixing the tuk tuks. Now on the way westwards and into Rajasthan baby!@
Madhya Pradesh, India
Arrived yesterday in Gwalior and swiftly checked into a hotel where we recieved our mid way support package of Wi-fi, Dominos and the Man U and Chelsea games all from our hotel beds, happy days!
Madhya Pradesh, India
we reached the town of the temples in excellent time and had the whole of the afternoon there, we went to see them for a few hours and had a couple of nice meals, the weather was abysmal but the hotel staff were great. On the way to Gwalior now, then to Agra and the taj mahal.
Madhya Pradesh, India
made it to Rewa after a ridiculously frustrating day, took 12 hours to travel 215 km, looks like a nice place though and we have hot water! On to see some temples tomorrow!
Uttar Pradesh, India
Yesterday an early 5am start saw us comfortably cover the 250km to Varanasi and at last make it out of Bihar!! With all going well we thought our fortunes had changed but heavy downpours soon sought to alter this and make life very difficult at our destination! Still onto Rewa today with so far much better weather!
Bihar, India
A non mover today I'm afraid guys and girls! The tuk tuks effectively failed their mot's hardcore and took £60 and 6 or so hours to fix! The aim tommorow though is Varanassi, so out of Bihar and onwards and upwards!@
Bihar, India
Another long day which ultimately has ended up with us taking a serious look at our route and cutting it down considerably so we have more time to enjoy each place! Having said this though, the day despite more breakdowns was on the whole very enjoyable ending up with us sharing a meal with 2 fellow rickshaw teams
Having just graduated from Loughborough University, where I did a 3 year course in Geography and Sport, I am now looking forward to a year of travelling, a passion of mine! However in the longer term I’m looking to find work in any field within the event management industry. I love football and particularly the Saints and Ashby Rovers (the club we founded at uni) as well as skiing (which I’m an instructor in) and also water sports (particularly kite surfing), festivals and clubbing! Bring on India!
My name is Alex, everyone knows me as snicks. I'm a graduate who doesn't take life too seriously as you only live once and yet always seem to land on my feet. I'm well into my sport especially the rugby, love socializing and have a great set of mates, life is sweet
