Royal Highness Ahmedabad

When i Came to Ahmadabad first time. i found this city as the beauty of Gujarat.
the sceneries i thought i was in heaven. i have found a hostel to live there for 2 days the hostel was much dirty to sleep there. the main thing abt that night was that it was a horriable night for me....
baap re baap....

We took the sleeper train to Ahmedabad, Gujabat. I'm dizzy again, but I think it’s now the effects of the wobbly 9hour train ride.

Seems there is some event in town and most of the hotels are booked out. After some searching, we found a nice double bed to share. Apparently the law here in Gujabat (the state) make you lay down a fing...

The train arrived fairly on time, and I walked the short distance from the station to the hotel, ignoring the many people wishing to relieve me of my money, and checked in at around 8am. The hotel has a wierd layout - the office is on floor 1 1/2, and you can't actually stand up properly in it. The attached restaurant looks pretty grubby, but it...

Namaste! What an experience Ahmedabad has been! It's a city of about 4.5 million with quite a few interesting sites to visit. I went to the Ghandi Ashram the first afternoon. He founded the ashram in 1915 and this is where he and his wife and others lived for many years during the struggle for Indian independence. This was the site where he star...

We had a great night last night, and were really glad to have caught Mumbai on the weekend. Sunday today, and everything's closed. Not to worry, the trains at 1.40pm so not long to kill after we checked out of the hotel. A good thing that the train wasn't any earlier really. As we sat at the station waiting we noticed that our train wasn't on th...

I feel so inclined to share a few of my travel experiences with you. On one level, they are of the most basic and primitive of nature. On the other hand, they are often the most seemingly difficult to address and can greatly decrease the quality of life, if not spawn catastrophe. Yes, I refer openly here to the natural bodily functions of what i...

The front page of the Ahmedabad Times was filled with color today, boldly announcing the arrival of Uttarayan. Section upon section of newspaper dedicated to all aspects of this major festival day, from what Hindi stars do for the day to, the best places to go, to a history of the festival, to the special meal that is served. January 14th was th...

Just a short one for Ahmadabad, it doesn't des**ve anything much, it was a pain in the ************** shibang, the journey th**e, the rickshaw driv**s (suprise) and finding a decent place to sleep. Ofcourse, the world provided and it all worked out in the end but it's not a place I would visit again, which is a shame because im sure its got lots...

We'd been to Amadabad before and didn't like it although at least we knew what to expect this time so it wasn't so much of a big fat shock. It's one of the most rickshaw aggressive places I've ever been and THE most polluted place I've ever been (and I've been to somereally polluted places). My eyes and throat were so sore after walking from one...

Over the last week I have had the pleasure of sitting in on the orientation for Indicorps Fellows. Indicorps is an NGO that specializes in pairing people of Indian origin (PIOs) with NGOs in India. It's been an amazing week filled with great discussions and new insights on the development of India. Living the last week with a total of fifteen of...
