Hi guys,

here's my blog for everyone who is interested in my next 4 months :) . I will try to keep you updated about my time in India; especially Mumbai.
So far I planned to be back in Berlin on December 20, until then: enjoy and don't do anything stupid while I'm gone ;)

Delhi, jodhpur, pushkar

sooo, finally i know the adres of my blog again and am able to update it :)
to make it easier to follow, i decided to split my stories up into chapters about the cities ive visited, my expressions, etc. so first delhi, jodhpur and puchkar:

after i arrived in mumbai at the 1st of september, i flew to delhi one day later. there i met david, julian (potter) and andrea. friends from berlin. the hotel room daid and i shared was...interesting. it smelled like toilet, the walls were wet enough to make the wallpaper and even some parts of the wall itself come down, the bed was dirty as hell, the shower didnt work and the air had appx a humidity of 100%. but besides that delhi was good! very busy, but the main bazaar was good for shopping :) ...next to the shopping we did some sightseeing and ate in rooftop restaurants, from were we could see the smog above the city perfectly.
After two days we went on to jodhpur.
we went there by a sleeper-bus over night, which was ment to take "11 hours"... after 16 hours we arrived. the busride was exhausting: it was warm, but with an open window too windy and the wind was cold. also it started raining and my widnow didnt close very well, which ment that i was pretty much wet all the time.

from jodhpur i didnt see that much, because after the trip with the bus i was sick: diarrhea and 39degrees fever. i still tried to have a look at the fort, which is very very beauiful with a nice view over the "blue city", but i spent most of my time sitting on the chairs, waiting for the other guys to be finished and go back to the hotel.
the rest of our time in jodhpur i slept.

after only one day in jodhpur we went on to pushkar. since i was still very weak, david carried my backpack, julian took care of finding the right train and andrea walked next to me (thanks guys!). The train took us 6 hours before we arrived in pushkar...i slept all of those.
puchkar is beeaautiful tho! first we went to the hotel and then to a restaurant called "lake view". from this restaurant we had an awesome view over the lake (as the name of it says..), pushkar itself and the surroundings... unfortunately it was prohibited to take pictures...maybe because the lake is holy. i tried to eat something....nooot good :D
yeah well and now the guys are on some hill with a temple, from were its supposed to be very nice to see the sunset, but i couldnt go with them :( . hopefully im fine again tomorrow and can also do cool stuff, like renting a scooter, as caro recommented for example ;)
