Goan to the Beach!


AT LAST!!

After a 70 hour journey, and escaping apprehension in Dubai, I finally arrived half way across the world in Mumbai, India. Canceled flights, delays, long layovers were all on the docket. Every flight I had was either cancelled or delayed and I spent over 8 hrs on the tarmac at some point waiting for the fog to lift. However, I must admit that sleeping in the Delhi airport was the highlight (Derek, if you're reading this I know you must be cringing).

Anyways, Raj and I spent a day in Mumbai passing the time sightseeing.. we even got the chance to see the massive, terrorist-torn blemishes on the recently famous Taj Hotel. The following day we flew down south to the state of Goa- famous for it's gorgeous beaches, spectacular nightlife and friendly locals. Goa is far from the India I had previously experienced earlier this year.. this place is completely amazing! Beach parties, bonfires, drum circles, tasty cuisine, motorbikes, sun and sand have been keeping us thoroughly entertained for the past few days. New Years was incredible and I could not have asked for a better night!

As for now, we are off to the train station to shoot on down to Munnar, Kerala where we will be staying in a tree house for a few nights!
