NONNYG:I like the Biryani too. Anytime I visit an area with a large population of India. I do not dull myself. if I can't sit down to eat, I would buy it as take away. 2 Likes

Interesting pics. However, you jumped right back to food photos after showing the toilet and mentioning left hand. Was that intentional? Also, @ op, are you Nigerian (black)? Why did you intentionally do a low budget road trip? Eg taking public transportation, etc. Just wondering. |

tpiar: that is a "genre" of travel, like some hiking from johnesburg to cairo. but my energy will never allow me to do that . so i do small scale adventure. but i will not go to india anymore, it is way too adventurous even by its normal standard. 2 Likes |

the morning time in visakhapatnum, before started today's journey, there is an indian temple at the roadside, in front of the hotel . yesterday was in a rush, i forgot to take a notice of it. and in the early morning, the intoning prayers and the mesmeric bell tolling were epiphanic. 1 Like

my ticket did not facilitate me with a direct train, i needed a transfer. i was totally confused. i even thought the girl who sat beside me and helpfully checked my ticket was joking with me. this guy , coming from nowhere, voluntarily led me to transfer , he went the same way. 3 Likes
