Pearl Park Beach Resort Andaman and Nicobar Islands

We are in the Andaman Islands waiting for a ferry. Frankly feeling slightly peculiar due to lack of sleep. Our flight was at 4.30am so we got an hour or so on the airport floor, stretched out on our yoga mats. Our yoga teacher Vasudev had previously told us he's trained himself to sleep on a narrow wooden bench, so we thought of him and tried to relax...Ommmmmmm. I think the weariness and savage A/C of Chennai airport has set us back in terms of our ...

... at the same place and were ready for our tour now officially. We spent some time around an hour researching places of interest for an hour or so which will decide our itinerary for the next 6 days. We came up with a plan and decided to visit a couple of places for the rest half of the day. We set out after lunch at around 03:00PM to a place called corbyn's cove. Nice beach with a nice drive along the sea side to it. My father likened it to the famed Cliff walk in the US. My ...

Igennem vores guesthouse fik vi arrangeret en tur til oen Interveiw Island, en stor fredet oe med et rigt dyreliv. Vi sejlede kl. 6 om morgenen. Vandet var spejlblankt og vi turen foerte os gennem mangroveskov. Allerede efter 5 min. saa vi en saltvandskrokodille. Den dykkede som baaden naermede sig. Da vi var fremme blev vi budt paa the af rangerne paa oen. Den duftede og smagte af ...

Vi moedte et par, som havde lejet en baad til Avis Island naeste dag. Her skulle der vaere en dejlig strand. Den tur hoppede vi med paa. Parret havde ogsaa inviteret en indisk laege som de havde moedt. Dr. Rattan var ca. 50 aar gammel og havde valgt at arbejde et par maaneder paa Andamanerne. Han havde en ...

I'm having one of those days... A day where everything seems at least mildly amusing and the street vendors who jump out in front of me and gesticulate wildly to propel me into their shop don't seem quite so annoying as they did a few days ago. The sun is hot but it's still ok and the internet is slow but it isn't numbing my nerves. It might be because I'm in Hampi..an ancient city full of crumbling temple remnants and rocks strewn around like the ...

I lost all ability to do anything this past week...I've been lost in this vortex of time, caught between something like waking and sleeping, like something between the light and the half-light. I'm thinking too much and staring too much... Perhaps this is just island life? Perhaps it's the white sands and the sun and this ever flowing and ebbing of the sea...? Perhaps I've just been too damn lazy to get out of this hammock and cycle the 10 minutes ...

I sit on the edge of a step to catch my breath and all I can taste is the dust on my lip and the sweat is running a river down my back. The humidity here is almost unbearable. Theres a cow to my left munching on a plastic bag and a gutter gushing out sewage beneath my feet. A beggar stands before me with his hand out and a small dirty child on my right stamps out rhythms with her feet to the sounds of a flute. Mamallapuram is a ...

Flew in over the turquoise waters of the Andaman Islands, which are almost entirely covered in jungle except for the white beach frings and thought, yes - we could definately like this place. The reality though once we hit the ground in the islands capital, Port Blai, was a little bit different. The minute we stepped out of the airport door the illusion of a tranquil, tropical paradise was shattered as we we met by a herd of rickshaw drivers ...

Timberli and I are about to depart on a 3-day/3-night scuba diving trip to the Similian Islands, supposedly one of the top 10 dive sites in the world! We'll have a private cabin and great meals provided for us. We're leaving out of a nice beach resort called Khao Lak, where we arrived this afternoon. I doubt we'll have 'net access on the boat, so I'll catch up with you all later with details!
