As the afternoon reaches its mid point I call the fort quits and head off to the intriguingly named Camel Tattoo Presentation. Last night, when the chef at my hotel described it as camel dancing, my curiosity was peaked. He jokingly said that they

For my second morning in Jaisalmer, I give the dusty festival a rest and take the time to investigate the huge fort dominating the city. On top of a minor hill in the center of the town, golden sand-stone walls reach a modest height. A cluttered c

With an early rise and start I leave my hotel and walk past the entrance gate to the fort. It beckons and tries to lure me inside, but I press onwards through the golden city. Ubiquitous yellow-gold sandstone bricks compose most of the intricately

A Moustache Contest?
As the first words of the Jaisalmer Desert Festival fell upon my ears, the interest had already been thoroughly implanted. Along with a series of other bizarre events and a good share of camels, this event is too atypical to pass

From the outside, Club 808 is but one of many gaudy facades along the Royal City Avenue entertainment district. A geometric relief pattern evoking the notion of 3 dimensional cubes illuminated by LED color changers overhead, cycling between violet and re

After a late lunch I find my mechanical mount and start back towards civilization. I leave the limits of the camel fair and into a brewing sandstorm. Long distance visibility is down a bit, and the stinging sand against my skin isn’t pleasant, but I c

It only took two days in Jodphur before I found my self on a motorcycle again. The opportunity to simulate one of my youth-grown dreams gunning a bike down a desert straightaway was too hard too pass up. Conveniently, the nearby village of Naguar is hos

The city of Jodhpur; a sprawling Indian urban center parked in the center of desert packed Rajastan. A towering 15th century fort perched atop an extraordinarily steep rock hill looms over an array of twisting medieval city streets. Hailing from an

Hey kids: Have you ever tried a shaking public squat toilet on an overcrowded train. It's like an extreme sport! It makes all other comodes feel dull and boring! And hey parents... it's actually more sanitary too!

So my fate brought me back to Mumbai, just a little early than anticipated. I made my way through the uncharacteristic cold dawn air and mist on a local train towards Chembur. A short time later I climbed the flight of steps to Ratnadeep's door

All sleeper tickets to Mumbai are booked for a solid week, but I must escape the magnetism of Gokarna before I become a permanent fixture in the wave kissed sand. The beach of Arambol in Goa sounds like a nice stop on the way north, and it happens to be

It all started on the trip to Gokarna. Somewhere along the way, my watch disappeared. Scared by reminiscence of time disappearing as it did upon my arrival in India and the traumatic loss of my iPod, I finally agree to submit to India’s supernatu

This Iraq supporter may not be wearing a box on his head, but he's deeply invested in his team's 1-1 friendly draw with Jordan yesterday. Given the emotion he's evidently investing in a game that doesn't matter, it's hard to imagine how he reacted ...

What can be said about relaxing on India’s beaches? Many things could be, but at the same time none should be, at least none that can do it true justice. First of all, the weather is ideal: warm all day, moderately cool at night and a nice breez
