I’ve found God…

I’m in Kathmandu again, trying to fatten up before I head over to Pakistan, Iran and then Turkey.

Kathmandu (one more time)

I’m back in my favorite city again and just being here has put a smile on my face (I needed that…).

Interview with a cannibal

Bear — Mon, 11 Apr 2005 14:16:34 +0000

I’ve got to put this in my blog, it’s to weird not to. This first part took place at the end of march when I was in Darjeeling with Sarah, we met an American guy who had been living (teaching English) in India for a while. He was a pretty cool cat and was very informed on many local issues. We went out for a few beers and thanks to the beer, he ended up telling us the freakiest story ever. I can’t remember a lot of the details, but I remember enough to identify the psycho he told us about.

Long time…

I’ve been busy catching up with the last 14 months on the road and haven’t posted on what I’ve been up to since Hampi, so here’s what I’ve been up to…

Well, needless to say we’ve (Sarah and I) covered a lot of ground since then. I’ll quickly run off a bunch of names (of places we’ve been since), but no details or I’d be here all day (OK, maybe a few).

India

Bear — Fri, 01 Apr 2005 14:26:15 +0000

Here are some more burnt observations from me. At this point I’ve been backpacking in India for just about 6 months and these are my favorite parts. This is just off of the top of my head, but don’t worry, India is made up of much more madness than this…

Yeah, I’ve been there!

It doesn’t really count, but it looks cool to have “Bhutan!” in my blog…

Sweets - India

Bear — Tue, 01 Mar 2005 15:16:41 +0000

This is my candy rating system for India, so don’t worry about a thing. I’ll make it easy for you all to have quality sweets (candy) in India.! You just sit back and let Sarah (Smith) and I do all the work for you! This grueling work was done by us while we travelled in the south of India earlier this year. We’ve both sacrificed for you, so enjoy…

India (Agra and Varanasi)

Bear — Wed, 09 Feb 2005 20:47:53 +0000

This one was pretty evil (and common) and hasn’t happened for a while. Not since a couple of Irish backpackers died in Varanasi because of it. I could happen again though, so it’s worth mentioning.

Scaming the scamers!

Bear — Wed, 09 Feb 2005 19:48:55 +0000

I’ll save myself a lot of work and paste a copy of one of my friends e-mails. This is one of the common jewel scam in both India and Nepal, this one took place in India though. It’s long, but informative…
