LOWS.
1) Goa. Instant package holiday hell, complete with "Bob and Brenda" from
Hull thinking it's ok to spend 50 quid on a day trip that will cost any
backpacker about 2! Fools! Sorry, I will now step down from my travel soap
box.
2) Trying to arrange transport anywhere. Just as bad as China only more
paperwork.
3) Spending a night in Panaji fighting off the artful attacks of an army of
bastard bedbugs, and then itching like a mad thing for a week later. Not
nice!
HIGHS.
1) Traffic. The roads in some towns here seem to be a nutty mix of cars,
trucks, autorickshaws, bikes, motorbikes and scooters not to mention the
donkeys, camels, snuffling pigs, goats and of course, the odd sacred cow.
Just attempting to cross some streets is like something from the Krypton
Factor.
2) Spending a night in 1st class on a train from Ahmedabad to Udiapur and
finding the price of the ticket included my very own armed soldier!
3) Unexpectedly staying with a family in Tamil Nadu. I was sat on a bus and
the man next to me had cut his knee badly whilst in the middle of the scrum
to get on the bus.
