India Travelogue

 

India 2004

I've always associated India with railways, and so my 'theme' for this journey was travel by train. Using a combination of good books and an incredibly helpful specialist travel agent in London, I managed to plan and book my route and tickets months ahead. Athough this gave me little flexability as i travelled around India, it did mean that I could visit what I considered to be every major highlight of a huge country in a relatively short space of time. 

The following travelogue is written pretty much word for word from the diary I kept at the time. Just click on the articles below to be taken through to them.

Travel Quotes

“Of the gladdest moments in human life, me thinks, is the departure upon a distant journey into unknown lands.
Shaking off with one mighty effort the fetters of Habit, the leaden weight of Routine, the cloak of many Cares and the slavery of Home, one feels more happy.
The blood flows with the fast circulation of childhood…
A journey, in fact, appeals to Imagination, to Memory, to Hope - the three sister graces of our moral being.”

- Sir Richard Francis Burton, 1856
