... light bedecked balcony/porch that overlooked the Ganges River. Shiva did not know very much English which made it all the more incredible that he invited us in in the first place. It was a bit awkward for a moment, but it became much more serene as we realized his intentions were good. He showed us two very special photo albums filled with pictures of him making silly faces and doing yoga poses at conferences all over India. We tried having a few conversations with him and ...

... breaks sandwiched in). And I learned a lot about myself in the process. I have been assured by other participants who have done courses elsewhere that retreat facilities in other countries have more western sensibilities and standards in place. If you get a chance, check out the film: Doing Time, Doing Vipassana. It is an inspiring documentary film about how Vipassana courses are being used in Indian prisons.

We found out that the Ashram where we had our room reservations was in a traffic free zone, which means no auto-rickshaws are allowed. So we lugged our backpacks and Pradeep's suitcases down a steep staircase and then across the Laxman Jhulla bridge. Apparently the traffic free zone ...

There´s nothing like bookending your trip to a country. So seeing as I started off in India on the Hippy Trail in Goa, what better location to finish than in that other famed ´hemp and henna´ hangout of Rishikesh. The holy town, which lies on the sacred Ganges, invaded Western consciousness after the Beatles famously decamped here in the late 60s to the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Ashram for a spot of enlightenment. Since then it´s been a mecca for every type of drop-out, new age ...

... that in this group due to more people there was no space left on the rafts so I decided to go for this stretch the next day.   One of my friends were at the camp( I have fixed them there), so I met her there after almost 3 years despite being living in the same city and talking to each other almost everyday. So with all the teams busy in their activities, we( I, Harry, Naveen and vijendra) were left with virtually nothing to do and ...

... and skidded her shoulder a bit on the road. We just saw it (and heard the loud sound of the scooter sliding on pavement) from an auto rickshaw. Fortunately, people don't go much faster than 25 mph on Rajpur road and she had a helmet, so she got up and back on. Third, at Yamonotri, our jeep ran into a wooden sedan parked by the road, and messed up a mirror. The driver just laughed.
